View Full Version : GU7 Radius Arms Adjustable?

The GU7 has a hex item on the radius arm - is this an adjustment nut or just a washer with a hex shape? I'm wondering if it is threaded and can be used to push the axle forward instead of a spacer kit.

I don't want to remove the arm to check if I can help it.

Hi mate, hmmmm?? interesting pic mate?? i could go have a look at my GU IV but i am sure that it does not look like that?? in saying that it may? but i doubt very much that that would be an adjustment of any kind?

why are you fitting a spacer kit? is it for bigger tyres? what size lift do you have?

For the hassle i would be recommending a set of Drop Boxes in lieu of spacers mate for the absolute very best outcome.

This is a 3" lift with Drop boxes and i love it

This is a link to the drop Boxes that i fitted and they are fully "Bolt Up" only....No cutting.

a set of those will take EXACTLY the same amount of time to fit as a set of spacers and fix all your geometry issues.
