DIY: ** Rear 20mm stud replacement spacers

LinPark

Excellent write-up! +1 rep

Did you use an impact drill for this mod and if so which one do you have? Also, I'll go search for this in a minute but if you also did a write-up for the front spacers could you link to it from the first post or put a link in here somewhere for everyone?

Oh, and nice hammer - did Thor stop by to help with the install.

wheee!

I used a Cdn Tire "Maximum" cordless impact driver. 1/2" drive with a 21mm impact socket. The driver is 14.4v NiCD and did a great job as it is a maximum 102ft/lbs force. Went really quick.

As for the front spacers, it has been covered many times. Here is one link.

The one difference I had was that you don't need to mod the shield to fit the bolts thru...





Go to my Mod Album to see all the pics for the front install.

As for the hammer... it is a 3lb sledge that is EXTREMELY handy to have around in tight spaces with limited throw. It packs a nice punch with one small swing! Thor would approve....

Ditto on the front spacer. I just lightly pulled the shield back a bit at the point shown and the extended stud fit nicely.

Great write up, install went smooth as can be. Def somewhat time consuming but I personally feel better having the DRS spacers vs the bolt on.

+1 rep and also a shout out to Z1 for great prices and a great product. Tested the 15/20 mm spacers today at 110mph and not an ounce of vibration what so ever.
