the guy at the shop here said its a very bad idea to buy the poly spacers and that i should really go with metal ones is that true or is he just trying to make a beter sale. The only reason i could kinda think of is that i live in canada so it can get very cold is there a chance that the cold could crack the plastic ones ?

 

i personally wouldnt do the poly on shock spacers either... i have a 2.5 inch leveling kit. all steel and it sits on top of the strut assembly instead of on top of the spring. What year is your truck? also i wouldnt have them install as its pretty easy and straight forward and a shop will probably charge you a few hundred for install alone....
check out hellbentsteel.com or topguncustomz.com ( i have the tgc kit)

 

+1 on the TGC leveling kit..i got the 2.5 leveling kit for $75 not to shabby

 

alright thanks guys. And yeah i would obviously install it myself i hate shops id rather take 8 hours and do it myself then pay them to do it for four hours

 

and i only have 2wd so i dont know if i have as many options as a 4x4 for the leveling kits seems like topgunz only has the daystar plastic ones and its only a 1.5" level kit so its kinda useless anyways but i'll keep shopping around

 

Yeah, it's a shame, the kits with the spacers that sit ON TOP of the strut assembly are better and easier to install, but I've not seen them offered for 4x2s. Personally, I don't know anyone whose ever had an issue with the Daystars, but my stomping grounds are Georgia and Florida, so I don't see many that have to deal with very hard freezes...

 

lol yeah probably doesnt get to cold there hey .... how bad would it be of the plastic spacers were to break would i be in some serious trouble or would it be as easy and drive home and take them out ?

 

to the best of my knowledge there isnt a metal spacer made for the 2wd. personally i dont see anything wrong with the poly ones, i have a 2.5" poly from TGC on its way to me right now.
