    Heck yes!!! I cant wait to meet some of yalls members and shoot the shit!

    Oh for sure man!!! You know I'm all about that Spindle/Dakar life!!!!

    Spindles are just so damn easy to get a good looking lift and clear 285s

    I will keep an eye out for a set, they come up for sale every so often.

    Only thing is, if they arent a local sale it may kill the deal because these things are HEAVY

    Right on, it should definitely be a good time!

    Thanks brother! I've been keeping an eye out for a set in the SA area, but I haven't seen any pop up yet. I may just have to order some new in the end if I get impatient.. I'm not in a huge rush though, the 700s I've got on my truck right now are giving me 3.5 inches of lift and I don't have any preload on the coilovers. I'm thinking if I do go with spindles, ill just swap out the springs for some lighter ones and use the spindles for the height. Are you running any spacers out back to match up the track width since the maxtracs add .75" on each side?

    When I still had these wheels I ran spacers in the rear because the wheels were so narrow

    20161016_134042.jpg

    With the SCS wheels at 3.5 backspace and -38 offset....the spacers were just too much lol

    Here they are, no spacers on the truck :)
