POL upper a arm spacers
 
1 Attachment(s)
Has anyone had experience with these. They are thinner than the stock spacers and allow more stud length for shims. Currently my truck has 2.5 drop spindles and 2” shorter springs. Alignment right now is .25 positive camber and 1 degree positive caster. Since these are thinner I’m thinking I can gain some caster and move the camber to zero or slightly negative. Right now I only have one or two shims behind the control arm shafts.j

With shorter springs, I would think it should be easier to dial in more Camber since fewer shims are required to achieve a Zero -to- NEG .5 Camber target?
Regardless, those thinner spacers should help move things 'more' for dialing-in the alignment.

That’s what I was thinking as well. Or get a set of porterbuilts.
