I’m thinking about adding a 1 inch rear spacer to my 2016 ram 1500 to gain a bit of rake back. I currently have bilstein’s set at 2.1 up front. Back is stock. Any advice on which brand/type of spacer’s? Should I go with aluminum? Poly? Thanks for any input.

I always heard rumors from some that metal ones squeak eventually? And you gotta find out if ones you get go on top or on bottom?? That’s been a big discussion on here. I’m thinking about a rear spacer too and cranking my front coil overs up an inch?? I’m totally torn...

I put 1” rear spacers. Wishing I had only put 3/4”. I put metal. Have about 1500 miles on them no problems. Bilstein 2.1 in front

Do you happen to have any pics with the rear spacer? I am also considering 3/4 inch.

I used a 3/4" rubber one from TGC which goes on the bottom of the spring . I noticed it was exactly the same as the ones we use on 97-06 Jeep Wranglers . I decided I wanted a little more so I swapped it with one of the 1" I have from the TJ's . Works perfect and are plentiful on eBay. Installed both in less than a half hour
