    But then again my rims are the same so in theory it should've only taken at 3/4 spacer.

    I took the advice I was given and installed the 1.25 for the rear wheels and it now looks the same. The .75 spacer was roughly .55 too narrow on my truck

    I never paid attention but I wonder if the front has a wider track width than the rear from the factory.

    Too many to list. See build page. Link in signature
    The spindle actually adds width. Its the Spindle plus the wheel backspacing

    The front and rear are within a tenth of an inch according to factory specs. I don't remember the numbers off the top off my head but I know it's within a tenth of an inch difference.

    And if you are .75" over in the front and 1.25" over in the rear that's only .5" difference which probably won't be noticeable to your eyes. I added .75" of width in the front per side, went from 1.25" to 2" spacers, and can't notice a difference between now and before.

    I barely even notice the 3/4' in the front with no spacers in the rear. It's in the eye of the beholder. Or how many :cheers: or :rasta: you had before inspecting.

    Yea I have no spacers on front or rear with the spindles and I don't notice it at all, but I do have wide wheels so that probably helps the eyes not notice. It was a lot more noticeable with my old wheels.

    For the shackle flip would i also have to buy longer rear shocks or would the 5100 still work?

    Lift is lift. If you add an inch if lift you loose an inch of down travel in the shocks. It depends how much travel you have let with your current set up
