    Hahah No worries. My current bumper covers all that, but the next bumper...chopping that bar off and getting one higher up and a bumper skid that goes all the way down and around :D. If its one thing i've learned, front clearance is key :D

    So after forum code which would make it 499. Does that make it 454???. I called and the guy I spoke with sounded like he wasn't sure and said there were no notes on the forum discount. . Told him about headstrong deal of additional 20off of 495 right now and he asked well you want me to price match that. Surprised he didnt try to make the sale..

    Equal up and down travel for a good ride, got to love spindles for that.

    Sucks the 4x4ers have steal from their down travel to achieve lift.

    I lol'ed when I read the 250 price.

    If they are 250, they are damaged, used or knockoffs. Avoid like the plague.


    No, our price included the discount already. If you'd like to have us match another vendor thats no problem, just send it our way via email or PM.

    We dont push sales because we want customers to make their own purchasing decisions. :D

    Can someone please give me a measurement on the lines that come with the spindles. Im trying to figure out which way to go.

    New vs used from a member and have to get lines. Im leaning towards new but want to see the cost difference. Thanks

    Are there any rims out there that will allow the thread to still be covered by the stock flares with the Maxtrac spindles? Here in Hawaii we have some strict inspection laws/rules that state if the fender doesn't cover the thread (that contacts the road) then we need flares to account for that area..

    Would love some Maxtracs but don't want to run around with flares to do so..

    Nah.. strict.. most guys with those setups just put the flares on to pass recon, take 'em off right after and put back on for yearly safety checks.. that or swap tires every time safety cone around.

    The guy claimed that the spindles were in a section of his website that was not supposed to be visible to the public yet. right after he emailed me saying this i checked and his site had taken that page and a few others down. i figured it was too good to be true which is why i didnt fight to make them send them at that price. i said OK and went about my day. a few weeks later they were about $550. probably legitimate guys but just had an error to a new website

    others were a bit more frustrating as i actually spoke on the phone with their employees to make sure all was legitimate. still didn't work out.

    vendors on here are always doing specials so ill grab some when i decide to pull the trigger

    So I finally got around to taking some pics with everything on. I've had the kit on for a little while now and love how it looks. Overall it took me a couple of really long days to get it done. Mainly because I have never attempted something like this before and also lack of some tools :D. Biggest pain in the ass....the brake lines (you guys were def right on this).

    So along with the lift I also de-baged the tailgate and plasti diped the mirrors,door handles,bages,and hood scoop. Next on the list is the raptor grill, have the insert just need to get letters and go to town.

    So I would like to thank a lot of you guys on here for everything you post. It's great that you all keep posting answers and helping guys(and girls) for as long as this thread is! I read a TON of pages to get all the info I needed.

    Yep the expos, I don't think the ride is that bad even with no weight in the back. But it does ride better with some added weight.

    Hah, do yourself a favor and run to home depot and put like 10 bags of sand in the bed and ride around for a few days, then return them. Once those leafs are broken in, the ride is waaayyy better
