I received a set of strut spacers to lift my van. Would I be able to have this fitted at tiger wheels or who would you guys suggest?
Thanks

Re: LIft Kit/Strut SPacers
I now have this pair of my old struts on display in my showroom at work( Im a 4wd fitter/fabricator) to warn people of how important it is to do suspension correctly and not use the cheap way out! Using spacers moves the whole strut down rendering the bump stops useless! As the strut compresses it will bottom out before lower control arm reaches the bump stop and causing the damage you see here!
