Strut Spacer Install

[Matt]

I threw on my 1/4" thick (1/2" lift) strut spacers on today.

NOTE: I installed these spacers on top of my RC spacer lift as a TEMPORARY solution to a sagging front end caused by added weight from accessories. I do not condone running extra spacers, especially without limiting straps. IF you do this, make sure you have plenty of slack in your ABS and brake lines at full suspension drop or you will break them.

It's a horribly rainy day here... so I did this install one side at a time and only needed a floor jack and 1 jack stand.

First things first, while both tires are on the ground, remove the sway bar bolts:



One of the most annoying parts of this job is getting to the driver side nuts... take a bit of patience:



Then use the jack to lift the front end via the LCA, place a jack stand under the body, remove the tire, and let the suspension drop:






Make sure you disconnect the ABS lines from their holsters and take the caliper off. I chained the caliper to the LCA mount.
