Help with Spindle setup

K so im wondering how this would look and handle?
Front:
billys set at .85"
4" spindles
stock coils

Back:
3" All-pro leaf pack
and maybe upgrade to billys in the rear

wheel and tires:
already have 16" xd hoss's on 285 xtreme mud

I really like the front to be a little higher. Anyone have this setup? or would know how that will sit? Any help will be much appreciated!

 

the bilstein 5100 has 4 settings: 0, .85, 1.75, and 2.5. I am sure you are talking about the .85 setting. Yes, it would look real good if you did the .85 with spindles and 3 inch leaf pack.
I used to have a similar setup on my old taco and it was nice looking. Though I did use 295/70/17 Nitto Terra Grapplers, so they were a little larger than your 285 setup.

 

ya i would do .85, you wouldnt happen to have a pic of your truck. and was your truck level or sits a little higher in the front.

 

I think that setup would look real nice. If you look in my build I have spindle lift with a coilover. It sits just a little higher up front like how your talking about.

in this picture what is your coils set at?
because that is exactly how i want mine to look

 

I think I have them right around 1 inch but I'll check them in the morning when there is more light.

 

sounds good on what you want to do, you will need to add the 5100's in the rear if you get that leaf pack, stock shocks are too short

 

Um....the 5100s are the same length as the stock bilsteins, so you won't gain any down travel. You are going to have to get a reservoir shock to gain travel.

 

the 5100's are 2" longer I thought, when i was getting my shocks rebuilt i was using the stock shocks as limit straps.

 

so i wont have to upgrade the rear shocks? I'm going to when i get the cash but after the spindles and leaf pack ill be broke

 

But if he can't afford to at the time, could he run the Toytec Shock Extenders?

 

for the 3" leaf pack wouldnt some 5125's be better?

 

alright new plan im going with a 2" aal do i still need to upgrade shocks.

 

I just learned spindle lifts exist, and that they retain factory ride, i think, and thats about all I know. Anyone wanna point me in the right direction so I can do a little research. Thanks and bump!

 

Check out Camburgs 4 inch spindles...those things are amazing! "06Blues" is running em on here...heres a pic of his setup

 

call camburg and total chaos, make sure to tell them you have a 4 cyl, i don't think it matters but make sure, and yes you can get the spindle and it retains stock geometry.
