    well, as we all know plans always change.

    looks like i will be keeping my TC kit and going with my original plan on getting the solo spindles. will also be upgrading my leafs to 50T or F67's... not sure yet.

    gonna add a few small things to the list as well, and finally get some new glass

    hopefully all this will be done by the end of the month :D

    That's cool man,

    How much lift will the solo spindles give you?

    And will you be getting the Frontline kit sometime down the road or no?

    prob not w/ this truck. Frontline is taking a step back from trucks for a short time. the owner has been doing some work w/ a Company that's contracted w/ the DOD adding armor to construction vehicles. it has really taken off and become a huge project and money maker for him and his guys.

    they are basically gonna start running part of the operation out of their current shop, get that established and going and then re-open their off road shop in the warehouse next door

    the solo spindles give 3" lift

    not anymore. gonna keep my TC kit and pair it with the solo lift spindles

    Hey Matt the 50T's feel pretty awesome now. They've settled 2 inches since I put them on my truck. I just pulled the 5th leaf. Haven't took them over high speed whoops but think that will be soon.
