Post subject:  Where to buy strut spacers?

I know that rustys has a strut spacer but i was wondering if their is any other company that makes these? Rocky road outfitters have a "front Trim Spacer" which they say to use with the OME lift i you want it to be a full 2"+ lift. Has anyone used this spacer? Iam installing a OME lift and want to do a spacer lift and/or clvis lift in the front along with extra isolators in the rear..How many of each should i use to make my kj sit level??

You have to decide how much lift you want before we can help you, 2+ isn't much help, also which OME springs are you using? Need input. A great way to get the best info would be to call Rusty's, All Js, etc. for the info you need, wouldn't it just be easier to buy everything from a supplier who can set you up with the right springs etc. for your application? They have all the parts, sell at reasonable prices and can set you up with exactly what you want from one spot. Multi ordering from many sources can save some money or cost more depending on shipping and handling charges, etc. If you get the wrong result from multi sources who do you call for help? Things to think about.

I agree i would love to get all my parts through one company (AllJ's seems great)but the fact that i live in canada and ordering from the US has some high duty and shipping fees doesnt work well for my lift budget. I found a local wholesaler that will get me the OME lift with medium coils all around for $ 959.00 CND(which isnt too bad,probably equavelent to 750US) I wanted to bring the lift from 1,5" in the front to 2.5" and the rear from 1.75" to 2.5". hope this info helps clear it up.Thanks
* How much lift will one rear isolator give me?

I got 2.5" of lift in the rear with the OME HD Coils. So maybe you could just get them and not have to worry about adding any extra isolators.

In the front, I also have OME HD Coils, but added a Rusty's strut plate and 1/4" clevis spacer. It sat a little higher in the front right after install, but my guess is it will settle to level over time. I added Al's A-Arms, so I don't know if this combo will result in UBJ contact with the stock arms.

The ride with the HD's is fine in my opinion. Not too rough at all.
