    blacked out lights, emblems, K&N, Racerunner coilovers, 33 bfg,
    so have have 33 with saw coilovers cranked pretty heard for the tires and the ride and the handling are suffering,
    so i was thinking about going for the TC spindles
    if i get the spindles and crank the coilovers all the way down to 0/. how will the ride be and would i have to get devers or new shocks in the back?
    the truck should be pretty level right? maybe slightly higher in the front but not a lot right

    thanks for the help guys

    Setting the shocks to a stock height and useing the spindles will ride much better.

    camburg spindles can be had for over $300 cheaper and they are 4" spindles versus the 3.5" TCs.

    yes you will get a much better ride. also, you'll be about 1.5" higher in the front than OEM, so you'll have the "bro" look, nothing some new shocks and a 1.5" AAL cant fix!

    Dune boy you down in HB? I thought I remember seeing that somewhere...if so pm your cell # and next time I'm down at the beach I'll hit you up and you can see how mine rides. I've got my SAWs at about 1.5'' right now so maybe that could help you determine what you want to do.

    If not, by lowering them down they will ride better like chris said
