Washers for spacers question?

[dsmitty2232]

I was wondering if i did some washers for spacers if i would need new stud extenders?? should I still get a alignment after I do this??

Since you've got a 2WD, all you need are some longer bolts that go through the arms. I think you need 10" long ones, and I think they are 3/4". You could just go to the hardware store and get those. I'd get them in grade 8.

Depending on how old or rusty your truck is, it may be difficult to get the old bolts out. There is a bolt that holds the sway bars onto the axles, and that bolt pinches the big coil bolt into place, so you need to loosen it first. You may need some heat, and definitely a BFH.

I would get an alignment afterwards.
