Default Machine Shop???

On my 07-13 Silverado, I'm wanting to lift the front end by a half inch and all lifting kits I'm seeing are 1 inch (I'm keeping it simple by using a spacer under the strut mount on the lower control arm)

If anybody knows of a machine ship that can either make some spacers, or mill down some 1 inch spacers I'll send to them, please let me know there contact info. Thanks!

Here's a pic of the 1 inch spacers that I'd like to have in 1/2 inch instead of 1 inch...

OK, but why post this in "Lounge"?
Moving thread to pickups ...

Asking for a machine shop recommendation is more of a generic automotive question...

It's for your Silverado though, not vehicles in general.
Anyway, making one-offs is not economically feasible. You won't like the price. But by all means search your local listings (I have no idea where you live).
I recommend you look for off the shelf products. Lots of lift component retailers online.

None of them have a 1/2 spacer.

A machine shop can make some and it won't be that much since it's a simple piece to make.

you'd be surprised, but call some near you and ask for an estimate.
