Installing Jeep spacers is actually a good way to improve the driving experience. By increasing the track width, the contact points of tires are expanded, which results in more stability and smoothness. This also improves the rollover resistance. In addition, widening the track gives your car an exaggerated, sporty, and powerful look. These Jeep spacers are installed between the assembly hub and the wheel.
The wheel lugs apply a clamping force to secure the spacer and wheel to the vehicle hub. When the lug nuts are properly tightened, the wheel studs will keep everything in the right place. As long as you use high-quality spacers and install them properly, the wheel spacers are safe to use. In this post, we will discover some pro tips to torque Jeep spacers correctly.
What Are Jeep Spacers Torque Specs?
Installing wheel spacers on a Jeep car is not a difficult task, but it requires some tools and skills. Here is the REFERENCE torque spec on the Jeep spacers:
- M14 bolts or wheel nuts: 103.5 lb-ft (140 Nm).
- M12 bolts or wheel nuts: 83.3 lb-ft (113 Nm).
For some wheels or applications, you may need more or less tightening torque. So, it’s best to consult a tire specialist to ensure the exact torque spec before operating.
Jeep Spacers Installation Pro Tips
- Lift the car and remove the wheels;
- Clean the entire hub surface, ensuring it is clean and smooth;
- Place the spacer on the hub and ensure it is firmly seated and flush against the hub;
- Use a good torque wrench to tighten the wheel spacers to proper torque specs.
- Then remount the wheel on the spacer and fasten it with stock lug nuts.
- Use a good torque wrench to tighten the wheel nuts to proper torque specs.
- After installing Jeep spacers, check and confirm the proper alignment and function.
Who Sells the Best Jeep Spacers Near Me?
Safety, precision, strength, and best experience are what sets apart BONOSS from other spacers manufacturers. For anyone seriously considering the performance potential of their cars, heat dissipation is something that should not be overlooked. BONOSS offers several key advantages that make their spacers a top choice.
1. Active Cooling for Better Experience
BONOSS forged active cooling Jeep spacers come with heat dissipation grooves. When rotating, these grooves allow the air to flow between the spacers and brake rotors. The air takes away the heat to actively dissipate heat for the braking system. These BONOSS forged active cooling car spacers boost the cooling efficiency, reduce brake thermal decay, and improve road safety.
2. Forged Aluminum for Improved Durability
All BONOSS forged active cooling Jeep spacers are made of top-quality 6061-T6/ 7075-T6 aluminum alloy. The tensile strength is up to 572 MPa, and the yield strength is up to 503 MPa (AL7075-T6). The forging process eliminates the porosity, ensuring structural integrity. This makes them not easy to break.
3. Strong Fasteners for Enhanced Stability
When it comes to safe Jeep spacers, wheel lugs are important. The provided BONOSS wheel studs are made of high-strength forged SCM440 alloy steel. These wheel studs are approved by over 75 SGS TÜV authoritative certification reports:
- Tensile strength≥1,220 MPa;
- Limited life range test≥2,000,000 stress cycles without damage;
- Ultimate tensile load≥152,000 N;
- Hardness (HV)≥395;
- Neutral Salt Spray≥500H.
In Summary: Safely Boost Your Car’s Performance with BONOSS
With BONOSS’s innovative active cooling technology, superior forged materials, and certified quality, BONOSS forged active cooling Jeep spacers are undoubtedly the best choice for your wheel style upgrading project. Choose BONOSS and experience the difference—engineered for those who demand the best.
