Ring gear spacers

[G-Body_Vet]

Anyone have any experience with these?

I'm asking because I bought a 3.08 set for a 2 series carrier and ended up getting a 3.23 when it showed up in the mail. I know they make spacers to use a 3 series ring on a 2 series carrier but are they worth using?

I got it pretty cheap so there's really no point in sending it back and paying more shipping. Don't get me wrong, I can still go with this gear but I don't want to be breaking sh*t down the road if the spacers are garbage.

I was nervous when I was running one, but never had a problem with it. After awhile I forgot it was even there. There is plenty more weak spots in the 7.5 than what the spacer will cause.

As always I try to do a quick internet search on what people have to say about things before I buy them. I saw mixed opinions on spacers. I'm not building a car that I expect to hook hard or do any strip runs so I'm not too worried about it. Basically looking for better gearing and two skid marks on occasion :wink:
Thanks for the input.

I have ran ring gear spacers in several different setups or cars over the years with NO issues whatsoever.

They're only like $40 new. Motive Gear and Mr. Gasket makes them. I'd probably go with Motive Gear myself. Besides, you need the bolts that come with them too.

Never had any trouble with mine. I got it through Speedway and the bolts were included.
