The pucks are gonna be your best option unless you have the tools to make a strong puck out of solid metal

well i dont understand what a one inch body lift would give you you cant go from a 33 to a 35 inch tall tires like some of the new guys that can fit 33s stock and then with a body lift and tbars maxed fit 35s a one inch body lift is a waist of time why not just get the 3 inch be alot less money than have metal slugs made

When you hate bodylifts, and just need that little extra room for 32's to move around, the 1" bl is a great alternative to a 3". I went with the 1" prior to being double lifted and installing the 3".

SPORTZTRAILERS used to have the 1" spacers on eBay but they don't have anything listed right now. I would try contacting them directly.

Why not just a huge stack of 12mm washers....NO...1/2" washers....std sizes are cheaper. wtf.


do it right. the blocks are only 1.99 or maybe 2.49 each. don't jerry rig it. That's just dumb.


i got mine done(my FIRST bodylift btw) in 3.5hrs. (the 1" BL)








Found on the very top of page 4 of the 1" BL thread.....looky here....
