Cornfed 1" front spacer to level only...

[MeefZah]

Sorry to revive an old thread.....but im a little confused. Does the Cornfed 1 inch spacer provide 1 inch of lift after install or is the spacer itself 1inch thick and will yield a 0.5inch lift?

Also did the OP install a front spacer lift and a custom spacer in the rear?

The spacer is .5" thick and will net you 1.0" lift.

I know I have seen it here before, but does anyone have a copy of the instructions on how to install the one inch front spacer that they send you? Mine goes in Wednesday and want to give the shop the instructions!

What are you wheel hub to fender measurements with the spacers. Looks perfect

Looks good! Mr. Cornfed came to my house in NC and installed a 2/1 lift in my garage. Super nice guy to deal with.

So I just bought the corned leveling spacer for my '14 le.am I able to compress the spring to get the spacer in so I don't need to mess with the xreas ?

Don't mean to revive this old thread but no sense in starting a new one... I just had the Cornfed leveling spacers installed by my local shop while getting some other work done. Love it! The truck looks miles better to me. The kit was $34 shipped directly from Cornfed and the shop charged $160 for the installation including alignment.

What was included in the kit? I read low profile nuts and then a different user stated longer studs?

 

[pDubs]

Low profile 14mm nuts, 3 a side.

I simply removed the wheel, removed the ABS line bolt and the brake line bolt on spindle, removed the 3 14mm nuts, removed the 19mm nut and bolt at bottom of strut, and then removed the 2 19mm bolts under brakes at the lower ball joint. Then wedged a pry bar in to push down and pop the strut down enough to slide the spacer on. Then put it all back together with the low profile nuts up top.

Sounds good! Appreciate it

Here are before and after pics - not quite apples-to-apples since it's a different location and angle. There is stil some rake, but it's reduced. Somehow, the driving position just feels better now.

Also, I obviously removed the OEM running boards so now I actually have some ground clearance.

Yep. 6 nuts, 2 spacers, instruction sheet, and a sticker.

Here's a shot of the spacer installed using the low profile nuts. Looks like any thicker and the nuts wouldn't fully thread onto the OEM studs.

Got the cornfed 1” spacer installed to the front. Subtle but noticeable. Thank you guys for the info and David from Cornfed was fast with everything from replying to shipping!

Nice color wheels, that's rare to see

Thanks man. Everyone here, Honolulu, has black and I haven’t seen these on the road yet. The silver T4R thread made me want these actually.

Wow, that looks great. Are those 265's? I have been debating the same 1" front opposed to a 2/1. I think the 275's fit the bigger lift better, but with the weight and E load ride penalty. I am thinking you get the same effect with 1" and 265's. If you could get a few more photos from different angles it would be greatly appreciated.

Yup 265s. Like the OP the 4R is a DD and occasionally will do light trails only. My pups was getting sick in my truck so I had to keep the 4R ride as close to stock with it being more plush.

I’m thinking of adding these on top of my 5100s because i had them installed and yesterday with OME springs front and bag and I still have a rake. There is about a 3 inch fender gap between the front and the rear. Do you think this 1inch corn fed spacer will level out my truck?

After reading through this thread multiple times, I decided to give the 1” lift from cornfed suspension a try and I’m very glad I did. The lift is quite subtle, but to me makes a big difference in the appearance. We also mounted Stealth Custom Ray 10’s at the same time. Tires are 265/70/17 KO2’s.
