Wheel Spacers

[Eldon Webb]

After installing a set of 4 each 1 1/4" aluminum wheel spacers on my ST I read where the manufacturer stated that the spacers are intended for off road only. Has anyone had problems with their spacers? Should I be concerned?

 

[Chad Merry]

Dont worry about it, they all say that to cover the butts. I have had mine for a long time with no problems.

My 2" spacers on the rear are fine and I drive like a fool.

 

[Michael Cacioppo]

As long as you used hole centric lug nuts on the spacer you'll be OK.

No problem with my 1 3/4s.....have had them on for 3 years now

Deep down inside I would love to get some spacers for the rear wheels to bring the wheels out a little.



My only concern is the amount of (ab)use I give my Trac. A ton in the bed would be a little much for my Trac if it had spacers. Heck, Summit Racing had a set for $50.00 in the closeout section of the store. I almost got them then decided against it.

Tom, I loaded well over 1000lbs of dirt and sand in the bed of my lowered ST over the summer, and aside from bottoming out on every bump, no problems.

 

[Tom Schindler]

I have had 2300 LBS in the bed of my Trac more then once. 1000 LBS is nothing. The Trac is designed for 1600.

I know, but a 3" drop riding on stock shocks, i was pleased with how the ride was.

 

[Tom Schindler]

Very true. I am running air bags on the back of my Trac. From stock to 6" of lift. All with a little air.

Tom,

I would think I give my ST some serious abuse, I have the 1.25 spacers from Ebay with no issues at all...



I lock tightened them on, used an impact gun first then re checked them 3 times with a torque wrench...
