    Closing in on almost 70000 miles with the setup and still love it! I will need to replace the Nitto Trail Grapplers in about 6 months. They will have about 75000+ miles on them by then. I am currently testing the Ridge Grapplers on my Tundra to determine whether to go back with Trail Grapps or Ridge Grapps. So far the Trail Grapps have a slight edge over the Ridge Grapps.

    Best place to order the spindles? Do 33 look too small with the spindle? I have tc arms and Kings 2.5 right now on 285/75/16

    And, how much lift are you trying to achieve? May want to drop some preload from the kings when you install the spindles for a plush ride!

    I've got a similar setup with 6.25" lift up front and I think my 285/70/17s look good. Although, 35s would be a perfect combo imho!

    I think 33 would be OK if you don't preload the Kangs. I've got a hand full of threads showing on mine & have 34's. Still takes a little trimming of plastic but they really fill up that wheel well....well. I wouldn't worry about upping the size until new tires were needed anyway.

    How much lift are you running to fit the 34s?

    Haven't measured but 4" from spindles plus what should be 1-1.25" based on the number of threads on the Kings. Front still rubs a bit while turning & compressed... Only notice it while hitting high speed bowls when I'm in the dunes. Rear end is AllPro standard 3" leafs...but I need at least another inch. I had BAMF hangers & shock tower relocation brackets on order since 2/5 but just canceled the order since they're too busy with the Pelfrey liquidation to fulfill orders. Already have the King 2.5x12" sitting around. Sometime when I have a minute I'm going to order hangers & shock mounts from @ARCHIVE

    Getting Maxtrac 6.5 lift soon. I have adjustable beilsteins up front......is it better to leave beilsteins at 2.5 and add 4” spindles or is it better to set the beilsteins to 0” and add the spindles and 2.5 spacers? Is the latter a better ride quality?

    Best option for ride quality would be just get the 4" spindles and some ome coils with the beilsteins at 0". But out of the two options you presented, leave the bilstens at 2.5 and dont even bother with the spacers. Save money and dont buy the 6.5" just get the 4" spindles and use the set up you already have. Itll be better anyways
