    He was trying to sell it for a while. Then the left hub went out (I think) and lost the wheel and we all know the carnage after that... So he didn't wanna deal with fixing it since he was already wanting to sell it lol. That's where the low price came in.
    I didn't buy it lol. I'm friends with him and saw the Denton racing truck and thought there was a member on here that worked there too.

    Honestly I don't understand how the spindle lift performs...

    @T4C0CH40S you still have one right?

    Wouldn't mid travel perform better than a spindle lift with coilovers?

    With the spindle you can get the lift and take preload off the coilovers...therefore it will ride better....when I got spindles I took out a the preload and the ride was way better

    ^^ Plus, a spindle lift with coilovers would need replacement upper arms then it would be considered "midtravel". Thats what I ran on my old tacoma

    Yes
    Why would a spindle lift need aftermarket UCA's or a different CO ? A spindle lift simply relocates the hub lower on the spindle which in turn lifts the truck. The only reason you would need after market UCA's is if you had spindles and then also cranked another 2.5" + of pre load lift into the equation and were not able to align it as a result ?

    I worded that weird but I meant that a mid travel set up is usually ucas and coilovers, whether it has a spindle lift or not

    Oh that's how it works!! Got it. So does the LCA balljoint bolt up in the same spot on the spindle?

    They got the bushing replacement kit on poly performance website when I was cruising through bushings this week. Maybe give them a call and get specs on it.
