    I will likely be the first to attempt this; I'm debating on spindle at the moment. Also compatibility may be an issue, but luckily I know a fab guy.

    If I run these spindles, I'll definitely post up some picks and provide numbers. FYI Ext travel Coilovers will be set to 0.

    Stay tuned! ;)

    yeah eventually, as soon as i can save to to glass, paint and upgrade the suspension alot. i dont want to be one of those kooks that drives around with glass with stock suspension. probably once i wear these tires out too, cause i will need to get 35's

    for right now, im really really happy with it...pics definatly dont do it justice

    Thought it was obvious when I typed this out, but I was in a hurry and on my way out the door. After re-reading your question makes sense.

    Yep I'm going LT and currently debating on CST (love these spindles) or these bad boys. Having to wait for these (currently out of stock) may push me to run CST. And not to sound like an arogant dick head, but money is not an issue. I have very specific reasons why I would run either of these spindles, but for certain reasons I got to keep things hush hush until I can pull everything together. My plan is to hopefully put together a sweet LT kit for us Pre-runner guys that’s affordable and not overkill (consideration of track width, lift height, looks with 33/flared fenders). I've been pushing for this for about a couple of months now and am just waiting to get everything together to have it all thrown on.

    I have a OME 3" lift and I need to buy a UCA for aligment problem. If I buy the Spindles do I still need to buy UCA? Or it's a better idea to buy bought?

    You will still need UCAs to fix alignment.

    From what I have seen with alot of guys on here if you get aftermarketing UCA it is not a necessity to get UCAs do to the way lift spindles are built you can get your alignment straight without UCAs

    So... The spindles will NOT go together with my OME Suspension lift kit and a after market UCA?
