    Did you apply loctite on the studs because they’re really important when installing wheel spacers and I heard that the spacers had no brand name from eBay

    @Mike C - any drawbacks like possible damage to hub assembly or additional wear on front end parts by adding a spacer?

    • @DrivenCompanion
      @DrivenCompanion  4 года назад +4

      There is definitely debate on some of these issues including whether they are safe, but they are also heavily used. I think you can make the same argument about most all modifications to the stock settings of your vehicle. I don't think you're going to create huge issues if they're installed properly.

    Hi Mike if you just did a 2" spacer on the front coil overs and nothing on the back would the back look lower than the front? I don't know if I should go with 2" spacer or 1.5.

    • @DrivenCompanion
      @DrivenCompanion  5 лет назад +2

      Technically you are level with a 2" spacer but I think in many situations you will notice a sag in the rear. If you're only living the front I'd go with 1 or 1.5 up front to be safe.

      Over torque and not going back to re-torque after 500ish miles has been the only failures I've ever seen on wheel spacers. Guys run them on with a gun and stretch the bolts and weaken them or with the crazy amounts of vibration since they're unsprung makes them vibrate loose.

      There is a very good reason why Tacoma's have Drum Brakes in the rear,,, Its for durability and longevity,, Disc in the back get chewed up with dirt grit or mud grit being throng back from the front,, so they cover them with Drum's..
