Just installed my One Ton Garage rear hub spacers, as well as a set of their 5mm spacers on the front of my box.

it's a really easy install, and wow what a difference! I was running Axis Mod7 wheels, +42 offset in front, +35 offset in the rear, so now i'm effectivly at +37 front and +25 rear....

much better, almost totally flush front and rear, and so far no rubbing, if i can find the damn battery for my camera i'll post up pictures tomorrow after i get home from D1

gotta recomend these, a real quallity product, and only about 20 minutes to install

You can email Van at: van@onetongarage.com

Essentially, they are $65 shipped for the 10mm rear hub spacers.

Yeah, I just ordered a set for my Xa yesterday. I'll be installing these along with a set of Eibach Sportline springs (2.0" frt & rear). My Hotchkis springs just aren't low enough for me. I'm surprised that these springs aren't listed on the aftermarket parts list on this site. I can't wait to see the difference these items will make :love: and will post some pics when done.

Cheers,

i dont want to be a hater, but has anyone ran into issues with the shear strength of the bolts shipped with the OTG shims (attaching the hub to the suspension arm)? Had a tech look at it, was concerned about the 8.8 grade bolts instead of something stronger...

thoughts?

any thing more seems like overkill, IMO...
