    I currently have a 15 tacoma 2wd prerunner with the TC mid travel UCA with King extended travel 2.5 coilovers and Maxtrac spindles. Looking to go longtravel. Are there any kits that will use my current coilovers?

    I spoke to DirtKingFab and they said I could use my coilovers on there LT kit but would limit the travel a couple inches? Any thoughts?

    From what I've read I need to switch coilovers for a long travel kit.

    What about the TC +2" kit? Same thing?

    I also wanted to keep my lift spindles for the heighth.

    Using your current coilovers would really limit the travel of extended control arms.

    The spindles should work great with long travel. Some uniballs *might* require an adapter to install in those spindles IIRC.
