Question Dually Spacer Source

[Jesse East]

Guys & Gals,

Where might I find a 1 inch spacer and longer lug nuts for the rear wheels on my truck? I will be putting a wider tire on the truck soon, and I know that I will need to keep the tires from touching--even under load.

Thanks for your help. Jesse East F350 Dually Crew 4X4

Re: Rear wheel spacers

I recently ordrered a set of 2 inch spacers off ebay. They are the aluminum spacers that bolt to the factory studs and then have studs build in to carry the outside tire. I know several people that have had them in use for years hauling 15-20K daily without any problems. My 2 inch spacers allow enough room for 12.5" wide tires with a 1/4 to 1/2" between the tires.

Keep in mind that 2005's and up are 8 on 200mm pattern and 99-04's are 8 on 170mm.

Cheers, Patrick.
