Maxtrac Spindle Lift for 2nd Gen Prerunners

Hmm those tires look big for their size

 

5.35 inches technically. And yeah tons of rubbing at full lock. Gonna need to do the cmc soon.

 

Had them on for about two months. Finally got some pics up. Pretty happy with the maxtrac. No complaints.

 

I like this color the more I see it, I hated it when it first came out. Saw some guy with this color and he had it fully decked out expo style, plate bumper w/winch, roof rack, bed rack, RTT, hi-lift, gas cans..... looked so nice.

 

Nice what other suspension components are you running besides the spindles?

 

I see. Planning a 4 inch lift in the front myself with 285/70/17 though. Wanted to go bigger but seems like it'll rub too much.

 

Thanks. 5100's/885's + All pro Expo leafs. I'm gonna throw some fox resi's in the front in a couple of months.

 

How are your suspension angles with the 5100s and 885s. I'm about to throw on the expo pack and was wondering what id need to do in addition to the max's to level the front out.

I assume the expo makes it ass high?

 

I actually have a very slight bro-lean going on. I have my camper shell, full size spare, tools, hi-lift, etc in the bed, so the expos are actually giving me about 3-3.5" of lift. I also have a yakima rack I throw on top of the shell for my spare and other gear when I go camping. I definately am pushing the weight on the expos. The 5100's at 0 + the 885's gave me 2.5" on the 4" maxtracs, so, i am sitting high up front. That's why I'm gonna get new fox's up front and not crank any lift on them. Hopefully that will level me out. The bro-lean is not too exagerated, so, it's not too bad, though.
So, you have the 5100/885's too?

 

Yeah I have 5100s and 885s. I put back the stock TRD coils when I installed the maxtracs. I picked up a pair of used expos and was reading with no weight they yield about 4" in the rear. Only thing I have in the rear is an undercover tonneau. I plan on throwing some sandbags to smooth out the ride if it's that bad. I'm debating trading my 885s for 884s or eibachs but then got to thinking I might need to put the 885s back on to level the front with the rear. I was hoping someone could chime in who had expos in the rear and maxs up front on what they did to level out.

I know I'll level out when i take off the 885's, because they are stacking another 2.5-3" on the maxtracs.
I bet you will be level with your stock stuff and the expos. Just in case, keep the 885's. Your double cab weight might keep you from having the bro lean if you do throw the 885's back on.
Are your 5100's at the 0 setting, too?

 

Yeah currently 5100s at 0 with the TRD coils in the front
AAL + 1"block in the rear now and the back is slightly higher

I have someone local that will swap his 884s for my 5s if I need to raise the front a bit

 

Any pics of a side view of your truck?

 

My MaxTrac package came today!! Got them painted and will be ready to go Saturday morning! Im going to be running the 4" MaxTracs, 5100's set at 1.75 up front and 2" tapered blocks with 1.5" toytec aal, and MT ext shocks.

 

Nice, you need to get an Orlando mod day going like we did last Saturday.

 

Here's the only one I have right now

 

Question. Will a spindle lift cause my steering wheel to shake at higher speeds. Reason why I ask is I met a guy who had spindles on his pre runner and it looked great but he said it shakes when he goes 55mph or higher. I am not sure if that is because a mistake in installing or it happens to all trucks.

Second question: is there a 3" spindle lift currently being made??

 

1: the reason the person most likely had steering wheel shakes are either from a bad alignment/balance, or the fact that his rims are missing the "hub centric ring" to not have the shakes.

2: from what we know maxtrac makes the smallest spindle lift.

 

Total Chaos spindles only give a 3.5 inch lift....for $1399.00
