I see a lot of us still have a stock sized spare with 215/75, anyone actually had to run it and/or have any ideas how well it would actually work?

would imagine it would be bad for the differential that whatever end it's running. if you're going to buy 4 tires, don't be a cheap *** and buy a matching spare!

Anyone, will this spacer fit my 2nd Gen 2002 rears? I plan to level my lift with 1/2 in HDPE spacers and want to cut them myself. Many vendors don't offer lifts, spacers, or springs for the 2nd Gen rears. Are they a little different than 1st Gen?

Lmao thanks guys! I've been wanting to put a push bar and basket on top for awhile but just haven't pulled the trigger. Maybe I'll get a wild hair and make it happen, who knows!

I wanted to lift it up another inch in the front and .5 in the rear but I'm worried about binding everything up.

No I don't think they do, the strut tower mounts are more oval I believe. Google image your strut tower mount. If you want to DIY... go buy a strut top mount and use that as your template. Then return it!

Thanks Hachimachi808 and Civiced94 for the info and ideas. I'll research a little more on the strut spacers. I have time before my springs arrive, but these goodies came in today. The rims clear the front brakes without spacers. I still might put them (7mm) on for a wider stance and clearance on turns. Name:  image.jpg

You won't have more clearance on turns with spacers, it will most likely rub the front and rear of the wheel arch, depending on your offset

I believe I have fixed my end link "popping" issue after lifting the v. I made spacers for the sway bars. Links were replaced prior to the lift. After the lift they were popping when hitting small bumps.

225/75/15 Toyo's, just made some strut spacers on OEM struts fronts are roughly 2.25-2.5" and the tears are.......right around a 5" spacer, it started as a 3" but the springs are so sagged I added another 2" and now it sits nice. Been ripping thru all sorts of terrain with no issues so far.
