Springs or Spacers

[02silverpathy]

Sorry about the previous post, but i guess setting up the post is not so hard after all.

 

"Ok guys I do not have either on my pathy yet and the topic of getting lifted is quite the frequent on this board...question is which is better and why? Both sounds great but i can't see me getting away with it in Maryland!!!"

I have a 1st gen. Pathy so I couldn't say, but what part of MD are you in? I'm in Fairfax, VA and wouldn't mind lending a hand if the logistics are feasable. The west coast guys are always getting together for some project or trail run and it would be good for us east coast members to do the same.

Im with you on the east coast project. I live in georgia. Would be pretty cool to actually meet people from here. Do some wheelin.

Depending on time frame I would be up for it. I spend my summers back home in Fairfax, VA. Would be nice to see what trails others have found in the area too.

A/C had coil spacers for the R50? You sure about that? I justed searched the entire website and couldn't find em. Could ya post up a link for us? Thanks.

I dont think they ever did make them. Everyone that has them just fabricates them.

in the linked forum trialsin 26 mentions a spacer lift maybe i just took his two suggestions and read them wrong. i thought maybe the post read that AC made the spacers.....soooooooo how are these dudes fabbing spacers then?? I haven't seen anything at lowes that looked like i could make spacers.

[RowOSU]

I doubt that you will find anything at Lowe's. The guys who have been fabricating spacers either have that welding skill or access to someone who has the ability to weld and fabricate things from scratch using thick sheet metal and using the top strut mount as a template...y'know the 3 sided shape of the mount...kinda like a triangle but the sides are curved...y'know what I mean?
