    I love the cablights. Had them installed by a "professional" like 4yrs ago... Latley the stopped working. Gotta get the wiring checked but havent gotten to it yet because I wanted other stuff first...
    The only thing that you have to worry about is roof leaking if not done right. Thats a lot of holes in your roof to start leaking! I have had no problem for 4yrs what so ever. But I have heard some horror stories. Other than that you will love them.

    Someone asked this but it was unanswered after a lot of reading. I have the same setup and would like to know if I should return the 5100's I bought and buy spindles if they'll work.

    Thanks!

    A few things
    You have 18" wheels? I'm not 100% sure on those, but 17" wheels are limited to 4.75" MAX backspacing, 16" = 4.5" BS. I thought i remember reading somewhere that 18" might clear with 5" BS but like i said im not sure. You should contact Maxtrac and they will know for sure. If they do work, a lot of people do 5100's and Maxtracs.

    No. Maxtracs keep everything in stock geometry. So no need. Once you go higher possibly

    Ive got the Maxtracs & 5100's set @ 1.75 & still running stock uca's. When I took in for the alignment after the install they had no problems getting it aligned.

    I think I am just going to wuss out and keep the 5100's and set the front at 1.75 and leave it as it is a daily driver. Thanks for the help.

    Hey guys, i just installed crown extended brake lines in preparation for maxtrac spindles. My top front driver side line is slowly leaking at the connection point. Ive tried flipping it top to bottom but then both sides began leaking. I flipped it back so only the top leaks again. Its as tight as I can get it without the fear of breaking/stripping it. Im using a flare wrench. Any advice? Should i take it to a shop? Maybe the line is defective? The picture shows the leak on the left side of the connection, its kind of hard to see.[​IMG]

    It looks like maybe it's not threaded in all the way. If it wasn't pouring outside I'd look at mine.
