    I had my last one done there. No problems with alignment but at $180 for 1 alignment I dont think I'll be going back. Probably just pricey here in Orlando.

    Yeah I'll be going to a place like that next time. I had good luck with the dealership and local tire places in the past. But the last time I went was after I installed my LR UCA's and thought maybe 4WP would have more experience with stuff like that. I was wrong. Haha.

    So far I have seen one member in this thread running a Maxtrax Spindle lift wih 265/75R16. Does anyone have pictures of a Taco with just the 4" spindle lift and 32" (265/75R16) tires? Because I have 265/75R16 and am not going any bigger and am really considering swapping my coilovers for MT spindles.

    I have a few mods
    Mine are 265/75r16s and I have maxtracs and icon cos up front, but my coil overs are set to almost nothing, about 3 threads showing on each Co so almost no lift from them. Almost all the lift is from the spindles themselves

    I can't see your image at work but I will look at it ASAP. Is it a side shot? Also I had no idea that you could get high quality coilovers that did not lift. I google searched your build (I can view thumbnails) and I like it! I am currently on 5100s at .85 with eibachs, then rear 2" AAL. It was just a $300 lift (+$75 for compression :frusty:) but I think within the next year or two I am wanting a better ride lift. I was considering 5100s at 0 and 885s but since I am a PreRunner why not take advantage of the spindle lift?

    Yeah its a side shot, they are adjustable, i just have mine set to almost nothing. Before I lowered them (they were set to a 3in lift) when I put the spindles on my front end had about 7in of lift and was nose high lol. thanks man! I've put too much money into my lift lol...I think somewhere around $3200 or something like that. I love the maxtracs they are pretty awesome and that setup wouldn't be too bad either.

    3200? Wow! Well nothing wrong with that if you love what you drive. So could you point out the details of a spindle lift vs OME coilovers? Specifically nitrochargers with 885s is what I would probably get. Don't offroad often but that is possibly changing in the future, but remember 2WD. My needs are pretty much just ride quality and I don't like the idea of having to buy new UCAs.
