WTB , longshot... 2inch liftkit hardware (not kit itself... just the bits??)

I bought an incomplete lift kit. I got all 4 sides to it, but no mounting hardware (IE: appropriate bolts, washers and spacers, steering coupling).

I spose a nut and bolt shop would be my friend, but what do i do about spacers and the steering coupling? Anyone work at a bolt shop that can assemble a lazy guy like me a hardware kit to complete it :)?

regards,
Christopher Leete.

I just used the same 50mm rhs for the spacers, same steering coupling just gotta modify where it goes through the body, Just go to the nut and bolt shop with all your body bolts and ask for them all 50mm longer. see my members rides thread, i think i have some pics of my lift kit in there and the spacers i made.

cheers
Mick.

Good luck!

Thanks for that Mick, that is a big help. Cause one guy suggested stacking washers, and i was like.... neah would have to weld 50mm thick of washers together before i trusted em lol... and some cylindrical tubing wouldn't be rigid enough unless it was some specialised thick walled boss thing, which i doubt u could get off the shelf.

Thats a good idea. i will have a geez at ur thread and go from there.
Can i buy rhs at bunnings or mitre10?

Much appreciated :tu:

Chris.
