1.5" Lift, Ball Joint Spacers, 86 - 95 Toyota 4WD pickup and 4runner. (Patent Pending)

Description: These spacers provide 1.5" of lift over stock suspension settings as well as 1.5" more overall travel. Whether or not you prefer enhanced compression travel for high speed trips through desert washes or a balance between compression and extension travel more suited for crawly mountain excursions, these spacers will increase your functionality and ability to custom tailor your suspension characteristics while increasing clearance between the front wheels

* Spacers are CNC machined of 6061 T6 aluminum to keep un-sprung weight down.

* Hardware consists of M8X1.25 X 80mm class 12 socket cap-screws, class 12 nuts, and flat washers. Use of Loctite on hardware is recommended.

* Some trimming of the upper control arm is required.

* Either stock extension bump-stops or shimmed bump-stops (low profile only) are required with this spacers in order control max droop angles. Failure to do so could result in damage to CV joints or other components.

Passenger side has spacer installed, drivers side does not.  You can see the extra droop the spacer provides over the stock configuration.  This truck has a Pro Comp 4" lift but the stock geometry is basically the same.  The ball joint spacers do more to improve the articulation that the 4" Pro Comp kit.
