    Hahah I figured you assumed 16 cause that's what you run, I assumed 17 case that's what I have & the quote he had said 17. I've never seen that size either.

    I figured you meant 17 cause of the quote but just wanted to be sure so we'd give you the correct info.
    I'm like you, I don't answer the question that have been asked a million times. Hell all yi7 have to do is Google it & more that likely it will come up with multiple TW threads. Haha

    You got it @SpruceTaco, I google whatever I am researching then add Tacomaworld to the end and it pops up. Your lift with 285s helped me out a lot with my decision making. Yours with 285/70/17 looked good and I knew the 285/75/17 would be a little taller so I was golden. Waiting to see if my front settles, it's well over 27 inches back is 26.5. Might knock my billies down to 0.

    When I first did in it was 27 up front & then it settled to 26.25". I have since adjusted my 5100's all the way up to get me back to 27. For a while it was at like 28 but has settled back done to 27.

    Appreciate the measurements and pics, makes my decision that much easier. I've got the original terra grapplers now so when they wear out I'm prolly gonna try something different just for the hell of it. They've been a great tire and I was kicking around the idea of going with the g2's as well. Guess that size is getting pretty popular cause there's a lot of choices for the 285-75-17 now.

    Yeah for sure, I'm running Maxtracs, Bilsteins & stock coils at 2.5 with stock uca's & lca's.

    Yes, the spindles are designed around factory geometry. So even if you had everything stock, you could run the maxtrac spindles

    I think the ride quality if good, I'm not familiar with long travel so I couldn't say.

    I'm pretty sure dirt king kits are compatible with the double sheer mount on the maxtrac spindles.

    If you're thinking about long travel, you may as well just get a set of spindles that are made for LT kits. I know total chaos has a set of spindles that does go with their LT kits. BUT im pretty sure total chaos kits do work with maxtrac spindles

    Hey man, we have the same set up over all, are you getting a shutter around 30mph? below and above 30mph are all good but this shutter is starting to get annoying. Thanks for any help guys. I have CB dropped about 1.5-2 inches.

    You think about axle shims to get the pinion & ds back on the same angle? I have a shutter at take off just have got any shims yet. I think that will fix it.
