    Pete - ahhh I see your confusion, they're not collars, they're the spacers so you can choose what height you want them at... that should clear up what you were unsure off the first time around.

    You only drill out your current hole as big as the thread on the bolt, which I can find out ASAP

    game1 - add your name by copying & pasting the list please pal

    NovaGuy - this is exactly what they run on the WRC and Works cars, and the "sleeve" makes it a left hand thread which retains full adjustability on the car itself.

    I am located in Leicestershire, but collection isn't and option as I'm not holding stock of these

    NovaGuy - just to confirm its generally impossible to find one with a long enough shank that has the bearing end big enough with the correct threaded end for the steering arm.

    Their use is also derived from competition in motorsport environments where carrying spare bearings in a standard form is cheaper and easier than holding 'specials' designed for purpose.

    I know I'm being thick here but surely the bolts needs to be longer or do you only run one of the spacers?

    Nah you're not being thick mate, those black things up against the RJ's are compressable rubber dust seals, which I actually bought seperately, so they compress to 'next to nothing', and expand over the whole RJ face, if you get me...

    Therefore, if you run both spacers, say, under the hub carrier, and above the RJ (ie: mega low) you'd still have plenty of thread poking thru pasted the nylock nut

    That makes more sense now!

    These seem a much better option than raising the rack like I was and probably cheaper!

    What are the payment options?

    Paypal (add 3.9%)
    Cheque
    Bank Transfer could also be an option
