Installed Monroe Load Leveling Shocks on Rear

[Matt]

The 1.5" will be too much. My fenders are basically even right now, i just want to get the rear up a smidge higher for when the bumper goes on and 1/2" will be perfect.

Staying in the immediate area... just wanted to see if I could move up to a 4 bedroom while interest rates are low. I actually don't think my house will sell just because the market isn't that great yet.... but the realtor (a friends wife) did a market analysis and its not far from what i need, and she said I have a prime location plus its one of the nicest houses in the area that she's seen (i've done a lot of work).

Matt,
So are you going to be changing out that 1/2" spacer you made & replacing with a 1"?
I'm about to install my OME in a week or so & was going to copy how you set it up.
Also I looked at your garage & the lift install had a link to the back & that link is coming back as bad.

I actually planned on having two 1/2" spacers from the start.... one on the bottom and one on the top. I just never got around to making my top spacers...

Thanks for the heads up on the link; found it and fixed it.

Matt - what did you make the spacers out of? I may want to make one too.

[Matt]

I made them out of impact rated UHMW polyethylene.

Oh... how does one do that? (or... what is that stuff?)

[Matt]

lol. I usually order raw material through mcmaster.

Want to make sure you get something that'll survive outdoors + suspension loading. Can't just use any "plastic" because it you want good compression strength as well as chemical resistance from crap that'll get on it (particularly in winter).

K are you planning on making more? If so can I get another set to follow suit?

[Matt]

Hey PJ im sure I can take care of ya. Looks like theres 4-5 guys looking for a set now.
