Want to install long travel but...

I have a procomp 6" stage II kit on my truck right now and want better performance off road. Is having that kit on my truck current going to bring up any issues?

 

yes there will be some issues, and the end result wont be pretty.






And a few threads on it

oh sorry I meant to say I was going to remove the procomp kit

 

are you a prerunner or 4x4? if your a prerunner, and didnt cut anything you "should" be able to. if your a 4x4 and did cut, your gonna have to weld a piece back into the crossmember. at least i would think so

 

are you 2wd or 4wd? if your 4x4r you will have to get a cross member welded back in place

 

damn beat me to it ha ha

 

I do have 4wd and I remember something about cutting the cross member with the procomp kit. Do you guys have any info on that?

 

yeah you have to cut the cross member to get the front differential to drop. A plate will have to be welded back in but im sure theres some good shops that can do it in san diego

 

Yeah, you cut the crossmember when installing the procomp kit. Which means if you're going to a non-dropbracket suspension set up, you need to uncut that sucker so you have something to mount the front diff on.

 

i would think that by removing the drop bracket, welding in a plate, and removing the blocks from the rear..youd be pretty much close to stock, and could work on lt from there

 

I have a buddy who can weld so I'll see what he says. I guess I'd wana see what differential looks like sitting at stock. If anyone reads this and are willing to, that'd be awesome

 

Does the total chaos LT kit (http://www.chaosfab.com/86000.php) use the stock spindle?

 

yes it does. you can upgrade to their lift spindle if your 2WD

 

I am 4wd. How come the spindles only apply to 2wd? If I do stick with the stock spindles, TC makes a Weld on Spindle Gusset that I could put on to reinforce them

 

has to do with the 4WD hub.

yes, use the gussets

 

x2

And they are easy to install when you have the front torn down.

Mark

 

spindle gussets are over-rated

 

I bet you get pretty good tread wear with your spindle modification

 

What happened to your truck in your sig? spindle issues?

 

Thats one way to put it.
