    Hello, does anybody know where can I get stud extenders for the strut bolts?
    I added a 3/4" spacer on the driver side only that I made out of aluminum to give me the right height, but the bolts barely make it thru the top hat and there is not enough tread for the nut. I know daystar level kits come with the extenders I need, but can't see to find a place where I can only purshase three bolt extenders by themselves. I know they sell the extra long studs to replace the fctory ones too, but I do not want to dissasemble the strut if I don't have to. Any help is appreciated!

    You could try something like Bolt Supply?

    I did, but the 10mm 1.25 pitch seems to be a unicorn no bolt & nut supplier has personally seen. Only heard of it in fables. Standard coupler, bolt or nut tread is usually 10mm 1.50 pitch. That is all you are going to find out there. even thought of buying a Tap and make my own couplers, but is even harder to find the tap with those specs!

    Shoot, I'm not too sure then... maybe someone else will chime in with their thoughts. Good luck!

    Thanks LTDSC. I had seen those, but that would mean I have to remove the top plate and then replace it which is a PTA. I was trying to avoid that by just cutting the existing bolts half way and put bolt extenders.
