    4" Maxtrac Spindles, Dakars and extra leaf, SOS Concepts bed rack, Lund tonneau cover, RTT,
    Spindles absolutely best option for the front. You'll get 4" and keep the stock geometry.

    if your seriously thinking about light off roading. then I would get a mid travel kit, uca, coilovers of your liking, maxtrac spindals are cost effective. but there are a few to choose from. a plate or tube bumper with a winch is recommended for peace of mind when off roading a 2wd. it can be expensive to get what you want just remember to do it right. research research research.

    Yeah I have been researching for the past 2 weeks, I think I am going to start with the maxtrac spindle lift with the 5100s and maybe an AAL too..
    But when I look at the description for the spindles it says max 4.75 backspace, I have my stock trd wheels which I believe are 5.50?? so does that mean I have to buy new wheels and tires when I install the lift?:(:confused:
