Good/bad? Should I buy them? These are priced half of what the Daystar kit costs.

Ive wondered about the aluminum ones but havent seen any reviews on them or anything.

think about this for one second b4 you spend the money, what does aluminum do under stress? it wallows and eats out, kind of like the crush washer on your oil drain plug. and what the hell is delrin? never heard of it...if it doesnt say STEEL i wouldnt do it.

I've actually got the delrin ones and just put them in last week. So far so good

 

[bcost882]

delrin is like a super hard plastic. and you definatly want some steel

 

[Shawn_248]

I couldn't find any steel ones in my budget, and the washer ones never crossed my mind, I'm sure the delrin ones I got are find, because I don't do any heavy wheeling, mainly back in the woods to go hunting, but nothing too hardcore. I called a customs shop about the aluminum ones and they said they have a tendency to hollow out and crack

anyone know anything about the ebay spacers for 98+ rangers? I've never been able to find any spacers for my 2000 except on ebay and i don't trust those very much.

Who makes steel spacers then? I really don't want to stack washers up though b/c I think it might look a little tacky.

I already knew about that spacer but it kind of slipped my mind. But I'm looking for a full 2 inches. How about the Daystar kit then? How good is that?

could you stack more spacers on these? like the daystar spacers or something equivalent?

 

[daniel3507]

I dont think you would be able to stack those spacers and even if you could it wouldnt be very safe. You could stack washers like this though.

would the washers and the f150 spacers work together? i want a little more than a "leveling kit" but not enough more to go with a full suspension lift kit

Delrin is just the actual name for one of the materials we commonly know as "Poly". It's been used for a while now under the polyurethane name.

That being said the kit mentioned above, looks identical to the Daystar kit I bought for my truck when it was only leveled. And I had no complaints about them at all. I did also get a full 2" from them.

 

[mp3deviant721]

Is that so? Thats really interesting. Interesting indeed.
