camber plate spacers

[kouness]

hi, i just recently bought some camber plates and it did not come with the spacers needed to bolt up to my struts. i dont know what brand it is because the seller didnt know either. he said they were b magic??? I just wanted to know where the spacers sit on in the camber plates? Do they sit on the bearing or the plates that move? i need this so i can get the right size spacer so i dont do any damage.. thanks -kouvang

hello.. any body has the answer to my question? How does the spacer sit between the strut top cover and camber plate? Does it sit on the bearing or the plate that slides (camber plate)? Anybody??

The spacer should sit on top of the top spring hat, and below the bearing on the camber plate.

And I didn't know B Magic did any suspension parts, just knock off body kits and stuff?

yeah.. i never knew that b magic made suspension components either, more than likely they are not b magic camber plates.. I was searching again and found the thread of the original seller drift freaq.. now, i didint buy it off drift freaq, but i bought it off the buyer that bought it from him... In the thread, drift freaq stated that they were up garage/ garage magic camber plates. so now at least i kinda know where it came from.

Also, i know that it sits between the top spring hat and below the bearing. The real question was: does the spacer actually sits with the bearing as in contacting with the bearing or does it sit on the sliding portion where you adjust the camber? Sorry if my questions are confusing. And the thanks for the help.

It's supposed to sit on the bearing itself, because it is supposed to transfer the loads onto the bearing, not the flat part of the camber plate, so that the coilover body can rotate.

Look at pics of Stance coilovers and you'll see where the spacer is supposed to go.

PS - I named off Stance because I know for a fact they have that spacer, since I also own a set. I can't recall off the top of my head whether PBM or DMax coilovers also have them or not, but Stance has it, 100% certain of it. Just go look at some of the advertiser specials thread that's selling Stance coilovers and you'll see it.
