Abstract
A leveler for adjustably selecting and thereafter maintaining a selected spacing interval between two parts comprises a base adapted to be fixedly mounted on a first part and including a threaded element therein. An elongated threaded support post is mounted in adjustable threaded engagement with the base and is selectively adjustable to extend outwardly thereof. A bumper formed of resilient material is secured to an outer end of the support post and includes a bearing surface for supporting engagement with a second part to be spaced from the first part. The base includes a lock for frictionally engaging the threaded support post for preventing unwanted rotation once the desired spacing interval is manually selected.
