Well i figured out the issues without any major modifications. first of all i fixed the turning issue with the spidles. turns out there needs to be v's in the side plates to allow the spidles to turn.



next i got the up travel maxed unless i cut the frame.













the amount of room i have inbetween the upper and the frame

 

nice!!

 

Check out what my boy made. It's not for a Taco, but rather a 1500 Ram. It's a 14" lift spindle and UCA. 4wd BTW. Dunno if this can help you in any way....but maybe.

 

The issue I had was my uniball is mounted vertically and was binding at full droop it has now been fixed but that's a damn good looking spindle
