    I know man!! Or custom Alcan springs that are made for a 7 inch lift. But that probably some $$$. I could drop my plate and go to 884 coils and it would maybe drop me down to 2inchs in the front. Dang it man I need to stop before this gets me spending money again! Because a 6 inch lift sounds good right now with those matrix spindles if I could get all the stuff right!

    My bad not Dakars. I meant ALCAN. I know the guys with 6" DB lifts use them. I am sorry about that I got them mixed up with Dakar but I meant custom Alcan. They make 6" springs figure they could do 7" edited that post and fixed

    You can combine an OME kit with lift spindles for a total lift of between 6-7 inches, however an aftermarket UCA will be required in order to properly align the truck.

    Found this for ya Costa

    If you are going to add that much lift you are going to need longer shocks and countless other things will have to be tweaked/cut to make that work.

    The spindles want change anything with the shocks. You can use them with stock suspension.

    Alright guys this may be my last question. The Dakar leaf springs ( ARB CSo47R Old Man Emu/ Dakar Leaf Spring) how its listen on Amazon, seem to be perfect for what i'm wanting to do with the rear of my truck but i'm seeing that its for four wheel drive only? Can I not use them on my 2wd prerunner? Once again its prolly an idiot question.

    Will it work? Yes. Recommended? No. 886 is not recommended because bilstein was not designed to dampen it. 886s (#660) are stiffer than 884s/885s (#590).

    Okay thanks. My truck sits fine as is I was just seeing if there was a cheap solution to all the weight I added up front. I will just save my pennies till I can get a new coil-over setup. Which will have to be a lot of pennies.

    I remember the front of your truck not the back, go figure. Did you have to buy that fitting kit too? I'm not exactly sure what it does and it's optional. How much lift did you get from them?
