CCCEFE91-DDFF-43B7-80CD-F39B2114CC82.jpeg Had 1” spacers installed to fix rubbing on ucas at full lock. Tires are right at the edge of flares at the top so hopefully won’t get to many stones/debris kicked up at the bottoms. I am happy with the look, didn’t think 1” would be that noticeable but definitely looks different! I would like to thank QUICKSHIFTER for his help & advice, a great asset to this forum, if your in PA & need any suspension work would certainly get in touch with him!CDD5A951-A25D-451A-A4A3-21D3CB6C268F.jpeg

Looks good man, but what did you do to the studs ? What will happen if you wanted to sell the spacers and went with aftermarket wheels?

Thank you I added the carli ucas after ordering thuren/king setup as I read more about leveling, might not have rubbed with the stock ones. I don’t blame the shop because I wanted tires flush with flares, they had to cut studs flush with spacer, so will have to keep wheels I took a long to pick them out & have not regretted my selection- which is rare for me! Ideally would have sold wheels & got ones with more offset so hoping not to have problems with the spacers

Ah man. You could have tested 1/4" ones from Autozone or if you went with Bora 1.5" there is no stud cutting even 1.25 could fit some wheels. Hopefully they didnt take much of the studs out so it won't be an expensive ordeal to go back to stock in the future should you decide to sell the spacers.


Do you have pics with those Carli ucas? They look hot :)

Do they have poly or rubber bushings ?i think they have Energy suspension bushings? Do you have to grease them ? I also see they have a uniball so they should flex fairly well and support tons of abuse.
They do have to be greased, have yet to really test them but am excited to, especially after seeing our fellow members pics off-roading & camping.
