    Maxtrac spindle 4" 2.0 fox coilover 2" All pro expo leaf pack 4"
    Today i went to go get alignment done.
    They said the spec is good but when i go straight my steering wheel was tilted to right side.. So i went back and they couldnt get it done right.
    Do you have any suggestion?
    Camber -0.1 1.2
    Caster 1.7 1.1
    Toe 0.05 0.04
    Are the spec for acess cab and double cab different?

    I don't believe so, since they already have the lowest price but I could be wrong.

    To those who have installed these, what was your initial opinion of the track widening in the front? I just received my SCS SR8s (17" w/ 4.3 BS) and I'm worried that they will stick out too much in the front. Has anyone done spindles with any SCS rims? I realize you can add a wheel spacer in the rear to compensate. Initially I was going to go the OME 885s or 887s, but now I'm leaning towards the Maxtracs, to keep my new factory components until later down the road when I want a little more lift. Thoughts?

    We're both running 35's & no spacers up front. I don't have SCS wheels but they are 17x9 with 4.5 backspace.

    You need a driveshaft spacer to push it back where it was at stock .

    For those of you that have purchased the All Pro Expo leafs, where did you purchase in the end? Straight from all pro or from another merchant?

    And where did you find the drive line spacers as well? I assume the size of the spacer varies from truck to truck.

    My expos came straight from All Pro, when you say driveline spacer I assume you mean driveshaft spacer. That came from 4-crawler offroad.

    Ordered and received my spindle lift and also 2" block for the rear. The spindles specify you need 17" rims in the front but some of you in here are running 16s, is there a certain backspace you need to run 16s or just depends on the rims? Also anyone running method rims? Looking at some 17x9 -12/4.5" and was curious to see how they fit.

    I have a few mods
    you NEED 4.5" or LESS backspacing for 16s. I have 16x8s with 0 offset and 4.5" BS and mine clear the spindles. granted right now I have 2" wheel spacers all around, but I ran for several months without them and they cleared. barely....but they cleared lol

    nothing yet!
    Finally got the truck paid off, now its time to get this set up. Im looking to get the 4 inch lift, 17x9 rims and trying to run 295/70/17 . With your knowledge, would there be any rubbing issues with that tire size and rim combo? Thank you.

    Or would i be better off running my stock TRD rims (which I like) 1.25" spacers all around and 285's?

    For those of you running expo leaf packs, I have 10" fox shocks (ext:25.19", coll:15.19") will I run into any problems with these? I have gotten some mixed responses

    It probably will limit flex but the collapsed length is smaller than needed so you should be able to run them in most situations safely
