Cornfed 1 inch spacer - no nuts received

[CatahoulaManiac]

I bought a 1 inch cornfed leveling kit spacer for the front only but it didn't come with the new nuts, I searched for low profile 10mm nuts but so far no dice. Anyone have a line on those or can confirm if the factory nuts will work?

ETA:

To help out people in the future, the 1 inch cornfed spacer will not work factory studs and nuts.

The nuts are standards 14mm, M10x1.25 thread pitch. I bought some standard grade 8 nuts of a lower profile, and will replacing factory nuts with these, a washer, lock washer, and a dab blue loctite.

ETA 2: Well the smaller nuts didn't work, they keep loosening up even with the loctite on there. Finally found longer studs from this website

Hopefully this solves the issue. Sure would have been nice if Cornfed had sent the studs and nuts with the kit.

you dont need new nuts. My guys insisted on using the oem nuts vs the provided ones for my 2" cornfed front.

Good to know, thanks.

Should have asked this in the OP, the stock bolts are reusable as well correct?

no reason to replace them, unless you strip the screw threads somehow

Awesome, I just thought there might be a chance that they weren't long enough with the spacer in there.

It is just a flanged but that the spacer comes with. A high quality flanged will work.

I have the 2" cornfed which is a spacer inside inside the coil pack, and another one on top. I'm pretty sure that i have the same spacer you installed + the inside coil pack one.

Got my leveling kit installed, and the stud isn't long enough to come up past the nut with the spacer in, is that how yours is?

I'm kind of wanting to try and do longer studs,having the studs below the top of the nut makes me nervous.

My studs are sticking a bit past the nuts.

 

[CatahoulaManiac]

Man you reply quick. That's weird, I wonder why mine isn't.

 

[CatahoulaManiac]

Does anyone know the thread pitch of the studs or a part number for longer ones?

might be because i put cornfed in my TRD Pro? Taking this off next week. BP-51 here i come!

 

[CatahoulaManiac]

I bet that's the difference

I used the nuts supplied with the kit. You want to have the studs to be past the top of the nut.

Yeah mine didn't come with them for some reason, went and bought some at advanced auto parts, put a washer on and a dab of blue loctite and tightened it all back up. I'm going to keep an eye on it for the next few weeks.

Then you'll be fine. I work for Loctite Inside Sales. They'll never come off!!!

Update in the OP. Hopefully that link helps someone out in the future, I had a hell of a time finding studs for the top of the strut plate.
