Maxtrac Spindle Lift for 2nd Gen Prerunners

No, unless you add coilovers for more height.

Staying at 4" with the spindles alone your suspension geometry will be unchanged and stock UCAs are fine.

 

So, I can go back to OEM struts? I removed them at 30000 miles. I'm planning to buy spindles in the near future, but between the spindles and the alignment I think that I wont be able to afford new shocks.

 

Correct. You can use the OEM shocks and coils along with OEM upper control arms.

What's your current coilovers setup?

 

I have shocks from a 2018 TRD with 1.5 in spacers (I know, I know, SPACERS) But I never go off-road and I don't use the truck that much. I work from home! So, I must be around 2.5 or a little less. If I use the TRD struts with the spindles I will ending with 5 inches. I don't really need that much and I am also trying to avoid buying new ucas. 4 inch lift with my 265/75r16 Hankook wont be pretty.

 

Nice!! Should look fine.

I ran 5" lift on 265s for over a year!

 

Wow! Looks great man! Nice Truck! So, you have 5" with OEM ucas? Any alignment issues?

 

That's correct! No issues what soever aligning the truck.

 

Anyone else experiencing rusting in the spindles?

 

Did you paint them before install?

 

No I didn’t... where was this memo
I’ve only had them on for about 2months too

 

Dang it!!! Yeah, the coating that they come with is thin and probably not the best in all honesty.

Couple layers of Rustoleum 2/1 paint and primer and mine have zero signs of that in almost 3 years.

 

If they rust so easy what else could be the difference between Maxtrac and some other cheapest options? Some others around $400, let's say!

 

Bummer I should of done it prior to install. Oh well one more thing to add to the list

 

Not sure my guess would be the material it’s made with might be cheaper quality?

 

Other lift spindles?

 

I have seen some blank brands from eBay like ... https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/283024305151

 

Maxtrac top, blank bottom... “look” similar in pics however I can’t speak on how similar they are as I don’t have experience with the blank ones

 

Almost guaranteed to be made in the same facility.

 

Possibly... just looking at the listings the blanks are coming from Brea and the maxtracs from Anaheim (suspension specialist probably)... @sblspawn are you going to be the one to give it a shot and a review?

 

the maxtracs are only 20 bucks more, I think I would go with a brand name for 20 dollar difference, IMO
