HELP! - Rear coil spacers WK/XK

[valpacer]

Hey Folks,

Can anyone tell me if the rear coil spacers in the BB kits are used in any other vehicle? Or does someone have a rough country rear spacer they could measure up for me (the steel welded ones)?

After putting the rear bar on, got some droop happening, and Stu is away on holidays so cant get the new coils made up till he gets back and Ive got a comp on saturday.

This always happens :(.

Thanks Fellas.

What do you need measured? Can you just order the RC kit and throw it on?

Hey Matt,

Ive only got 4 days to sort it before the comp! Just the inner & outer dimension of the spacer then i can get some plates cut out and weld some up

Thanks to Matt with the measurements, made up a set of 1 1/4" spacers (minimum to clear the factory locator) used some 2 3/4" tube for the bump stop mount and locator and then used some solid nolathane rod in the same diameter as the bump stop.

Should have taken pics when making it but just got it done.:mad:

Awesome man, glad it worked out!!

Hey Jon... potential S.A. product? 1.25" rear spacers would be great for guys like me who want to get the stock rake back after installing a lift like the OME that "levels" out the Jeep.

Funny you should ask...

This is part of the lift kit I am working on and is 2.25" but I can certainly make a 1.25" leveling spacer just like them.

That makes my welding look like my 2 yr old did it.......

Nice!

Dave... no spring isolator up top? (lol that seems like a trend here recently)
