    I am going to purchase some Ebitech coils 2.6's I believe. Should be a pretty cool stance with some bigger tires. Right now I rub with 245/75's on maxtracs with 1.25" spacers. Hopefully I can ditch the spacers soon and fix the rubbing.

    Can you combine a spacer lift with a spindle lift? I'm sure I've read where you can or can't but it's been awhile since I've been on here.

    Yea you can. But you'll probably need aftermarket UCAs tho if I'm not mistaken.

    Yes you can combine the spindles with other lifts.
    I don't have spacers but I do have 5100's set at 1.75 combined with the spindles & I'm still running my stock uca's.
    The spindles maintain stock geometry. Usually you don't need uca's until you do a 3" lift, like with coilovers. So if you did spindles + a 3" lift you'd probably need uca's.

    Hey guys the person I'm helping do a spindle lift has a rake of 1.75" in the back meaning it needs to be lifted 2.25" to be level, 2.5 to be safe and prevent bro lean. How do yall think we should lift the rear? I was thinking 3 leaf AAL but I don't think they go up to 2.5". Also don't want to put any block on bigger than 1". Thanks

    Well the 4" kit comes with 2" blocks which puts it pretty level.
    Does he have tsb springs or no?
    A tsb add a leaf usually gives 1.5" + a 1" block will put you where you want to be.
    A non tsb add a leaf usually gives 2" & I'm not sure how to get that extra. 5"
    Either way he'll need new shocks.

    I've posted this pic before but this truck has just spindles & 2" blocks.

    I understand but her rake is 1.75 in the rear. So if it is raised 2 inches and the front is raised 4 inches, she will have a quarter inch bro lean is what I'm saying. That truck appears to as well. I'm not sure if she has tsb springs. And yes we're going with 5100s in the rear, extended. Thanks for the pic again and I did see it when you posted it

    So it's 1.75 lower in the rear? If that's the case, 2" will be good & 1.5 will even work. I don't think you'll notice .25"

    No, her rear is 1.75 higher than the front. But I think we're on the same page. I don't think its too noticeable either but once it's done it's done you know? I think I will do a 2" progressive aal and if she isn't happy stick a 1" block in later. Sometimes aals do give more lift than listed so maybe it will work out.

    Oh ok I was under the impression you already had the spindles installed. I think 2" in the rear will be fine. That pic was also taken in my driveway which has a slope so that may throw it off a bit.

    Oh I understand nope its stock right now. The front is decided just picking a rear (if not the max Trac rear but I wasn't crazy about that) yeah I tried to compensate for the slope but who knows. Thanks for your help. So while we're on it the spindles claim to clear 33s. I find it hard to believe, do they not require trimming?

    On that red truck he has 285's & from my understanding all he did was take the mud flaps off & no more rubbing.
