Mine are crap! The backs are solid steel and the fronts are temp. wood ones!  :o  They are 4 1/4" outside(I can measure tonight)  and a 2.5" hole saw works perfect for the inside. You don't need that lip as you will put the stock rubber coil isolator under them.

If you already have the tools and materials go for it, but if you haven't priced the material yet, UHMW is pretty dang expensive. If you would price it out, you'll see I'm not making a ton of money on my spacers... Actually I'm not even making enough to cover my weekly gas usage...LOL!!!

I don't know about the Sky ones, but I HAVE had a pair of the RRO ones and they were not even a full inch tall! They told me it was supposed to give 1-1/8" of lift, not that they were 1-1/8" thick! ::) Anyways, the ones I make and sell in the garage sale forum are truly 1" or 1-1/2" thick(depending on which size you want...).


Also, with an inside diameter of 2.355", your spacers better be made of a flexible material that can stretch. If not, you'll never get them on the front bumpstops! I cut the center out to 2.5" and it's a snug fit!

92sidekick4x4: that's a good price.  :) 4" outside diameter might be kinda small, but should still work...
