Default Kartboy front endlinks - need spacers?

My order did not come with the 1/4" spacers. Do I really need to use them? I've checked if Home Depot carried something I can use. Any suggestions on where I can get them fast?

If you have the Whiteline 27-29mm bar, you need them. Contact Kartboy and he'll mail them out to ya.

anyone have pics of these spacers? And what do they do? I'm running a 27mm adj. front sway without any spacers and I haven't had any problems.

Yeah i'll be installing a 27mm front this weekend most likely but will be using stock endlinks up front. From the DIY's I've read I think I'll be fine and won't need what the OP is describing. I, of course, won't be using Kartboy endlinks as I just said I'll be using stockers.

What are you using up front Draco-REX?

I know there are pics in here somewhere, but I couldn't find them. They are basically aluminum washers that are 1/4" thick. I needed them for my front WL 24mm, w/o the angle of the endlink was too great. Any noise on yours? PM Clint at TiC if you don't have them.

I put mine on the chassis side, before the endlink (to push the endlink towards the outside of the car.) MOUNT | SPACER | ENDLINK | WASHER | NUT
