Wheel spacers help!!

Need new shoes? This is the place to discuss.

I will throw a bone your way. Stop referring to adaptors and spacers as the same thing. Find out the difference in the two and you will answer your own question.

As to the marine not to get too personal but I have earned my own strips as well I may not have gone to the sand box but have done my own miles of walking and terrors but never the less have searched and search for the proper equipment for my tb the problems iv run into was for the fact of most of the vehicle custom site are to customize pickups and or jeeps not SUVs this is my first time owning a SUV iv only had pickups and never had probs finding the right tools/equipment to do my rig up right. I do greatly appreciate people such as yourselfs that are so knowledgeable in the SUV world, I'd like to keep my knowledge up and expand my knowledge to the SUV world because I will have to say suspension wise and body mounting are far and few between the pickup and hotrod world

You keep mentioning Pickups and Jeeps on other forums and searching google and amazon. This site was setup as a one stop shop for all of the info you need. So you need to search this site not others. Hell the easiest thing to do is look through the build threads, I can admit that I've personally gone through %99 of them, you'd be surprised the info and ideas you can pick up. A list a parts used is required right at the start of the thread. There are some guys on here that have been through and can attest for a strong majority of the parts available for our platform. Am I gonna mention them no (I'm not gonna get blamed for the PM's to come from that). But some simple searching and browsing will help you find out what you need to know.

Between the signature and the grammar, oh the grammar, this is getting painful. Only solidifies my intense desire to stay away from mud holes and keep to the back country expeditions.

Shhhhh, thats like calling a chineese person 'oriental'. While it is technically correct, they don't appreciate the terminology.

In my eyes, an SUV is the soccer mom unibody contraptions. Since we have a body on a solid frame, and a low range transfer case the way we use 'em expands the definition of the "typical" SUV.
