Having fitted my Insa Turbos I have found that the side lugs catch the plastic flares pretty badly. I did have Roughtrax spacers fitted too and the modular steels have an additional 7mm on the offset. Having whipped the spacers off, I found it a great deal better. Then taking some of the heaviest kit out of the boot helped even more. It was equivalent to having an adult sitting on the rear bumper. I have the Ironman B set up. It's a bit stiffer on the back end now, but it doesn't seem to catch. But I am about to fit drawers etc so some of that rubbing will probably come back when articulating hard.
I thought that spring spacers might help to give a little more clearance. I rang West Coast and they do a set for the 80 in both 15mm and 30mm. I don't want to fall into any traps that people have sprung before with these. I feel it's a bit of a bodge to be fair, but what is the net effect of fitting these things. I did put some on Lil Blue at the back to level it up and it didn't seem to do anything odd. I am contemplating a mild body lift too which will raise the arches a little so that the arc of the wheel falls inside the arch rather than directly onto it.
Anyone got any spacers going begging?
