clevis spacers in cm

[FrenchKJ]

Hello,
I would like to buy at JBA's two clevis spacers but these measures are a bit strange for me.
May somebody translate these measures in centimeters?

.250" Clevis Spacer = about 1/2" of lift.
.375" Clevis Spacer = about 3/4" of lift.
.500" Clevis Spacer = about 1.0" of lift.

thanks.:icon_neutral:

.25" is just over 6mm

as for the rest

y'know, teach a man to fish ... etc. etc.

Thanks for your quick answer.
the sign " means inches.
So, it's strange to have .500" = 1.0"

That's how the front suspension translates into lift. The spacer is 0.5 inches but it translates into 1 inch lift in the suspension.

On a side note 0.375 inches has been determined to be the safe maximum for this type of lift.

Yes use the .375, do not use more as it does not allow enough of the shock to be in the clevis
as mentioned above if you add 1/4 inch top plate you get 1/2 inch lift for example

OK, I understand better.
another question.
Which material JBA uses to make their spacers? steel? or plastic composite?

 

[tommudd]

metal/steel

Thank U, Tom
I've ordered the 0.375.
Because I have a problem with the lift I installed.
No lift in the front! only 19"
