2012 Maxtrac Spindle Group Buy

pquiroua,

So you are actually around 5.5" of lift now? How's the ride?

 

I am thinking that I am somewhere between 5.25-5.5" in the front. I am going to measure tomorrow to find out for sure.

The ride, honestly, I think is great. That can be a little misleading because my suspension before was shot. The shocks were on their way out and the leaf pack was a total loss. It's not stiff at all in my opinion.

 

what's the load range on those tires? D, I would imagine...

 

i think my measurements were 25" at the hub....5" front

those who have installed the spindles and got an alignment, what kind of caster measurements are you guys getting??

 

I am thinking about installing spindles. What other things do I need to up grade when doing a spindle lift?

 

these spindles will provide about 3.75" of front lift...you can use your stock coils and shocks...and if you want to go higher, you can do that too...popular upgrades like OME or eibach springs..paired with 5100's or some sweet King coilovers...depends on your wallet..and for your rear, a nice leaf pack, longer shocks, and extended brake lines...

i guess it all depends on how you want your truck...any ideas on what you want to do with it?

edit: either way, spindles are the way to go for lifting prerunners...it's been the best purchase on my truck.

thanks! mine is at 4.5 and 4.8, its super high. Me and the toyota techs had no idea what was wrong... anyone else have this issue??

 

Right now I have billy 5100 set at 0 with ome 885x in front. The rear has 5125 with an icon 3 leaf progressive installed. I like the height of the spindle lift. Seems like I have everything I need but the spindles and brake lines?

 

You Will be pretty high up front

 

So will the rear shocks work? Paired with a dakar leaf pack?

 

yep...you're looking at spindle height (3.75) plus whatever your 885's are giving you right now...5" plus in the front...

 

what do you suggest for the rear?

 

i personally have spindles, eibachs and 5100's at .85...about a 5.5" lift...i will be getting rid of that setup in the coming week or two...i'm running the all pro leaf pack and a 1" block in the rear.. extended 5100's for a tundra and extended brake lines...i'm still a little lower on the rear...

i guess determine what overall height you want to accomplish...i dont know anything about the 5125...they come in different lengths, no?

if you want the spindle height only, you're gonna have to get rid of the 885s...or just keep the 885's and buy a leaf pack... ?????

also, running the leaf pack and the 1" block.....i haven't ran into issues...stiffer than stock, but not bad at all...that's what i had to do to even out with the front...

 

If any of you guys in socal want thier spindles installed for $120 bucks, pm me or manwithoutaplan.

 

Is anyone running a OME 3" lift with the spindles and Expo's.

 

uh oh, what setup are you going to be running next??

 

Took measurements this morning and I gained 5-3/4" in the front...I guess this could be off by a 1/4" or so depending on if I eyed it up correctly.
