Maxtrac Spindle Lift for 2nd Gen Prerunners

That's right! Thanks. Love his truck.

 

Heck yeah, was one of my inspirations for my build lol

How you been brother?​

 

Been good man. Trying to decide when I wanna pull the trigger on these spindles.

 

I would say, now is a good time haha.

I love helping people empty their accounts

 

You can't ball on a budget!
At least you get 5 for that price, I only get 4. Haha

 

i have a question bout that... I have a stage 1 icon kit, debating about UCAs or going with maxtracs for a little more lift... torn between that and sizing on KO2s.. any help?!... i need to empty my bank before my gf does.

 

Well maxtracs will give you more than a "little more lift". What's your question about the KO2s?

 

if i add spindles, do i need UCAs?... with KO2's, 275/70/17 will i need a cmc?... i have scs stealth 6s

 

Spindles have no effect on any of your suspension geometry. The only reason you'd want new UCA's is if you get extended travel shocks (Kings, Fox, Icon, ADS, etc). If you install spindles literally the only other thing affected are the brake lines.

I can't comment on the tires, so I'll let someone with 1st hand experience chime in.

 

You definitely don't need UCAs with spindles, assuming you still have factory coils or something under 2.5-3"

You may need the CMC depending on how you use your vehicle, but most likely not with 275s. @ChadsPride has spindles and stealth 6s too I believe, but we're all still waiting on him to buy his rubbers!!!

 

I have stock at the moment but once everythings purchased ill be throwing on icons stage 1 kit, scs stealth 6s wrapped in KO2s, and maybe the spindles.. I dont offroad much, maybe some dirt roads, and light to medium trails... I needed some confirmation on everything, Im not 100 on the 2.75" of lift, kinda wanting a little more height, 4" spindles and coilovers set to 0 should give me a nice height..

thanks for the replies!

 

I ran 285/75r16's on 16x7's with 3.5" BS. They only rubbed on the fender flares. Removed the flares and 0 rubbing. No CMC required in my case

 

@pilau

You could use the Maxtracs for lift and drop the preload on your coilovers (if you have any) and probably be very happy

If depends on how tall your coils are now regarding how much lift you will have after the spindle install

 

Keep asking questions and figure out what is best for you.

Im constantly trying to learn and figure things out so i can add to my truck and make it exactly what i want

 

ive searched this thread numerous times and recently out of 500+ pages i got down to about 438 as i worked back to 1 lol... im going to install the icon stage 1 kit myself first then debate on maxtracs... going with the icon coils that come with the kit so im unsure as to what ill get out of everything... truck is a learning curve for me as i come from crotch rockets

 

Tons of info on here.

If you havnt pulled the trigger i would think about Maxtracs and 884s with 5100s (set at zero) up front

Would look really good and be an awesome lift for the $$$

 

i got that memorial day deal a cpl of years back from lowrange, i got the icon kit for a little under 1k with the $100 gift card i had. only reason i went after the icons.. otherwise i prob wouldve went with billys. ive had these icons in my garage for a few yrs, i need to get it done.. but its been 118 degrees in the day, and 100+ at 10pm!... i barely even wanna go outside!.. i already work outside =/

 

Maxtracs with icons no preload. Floats nicely

 

Did you change the UCA as well?... what size tires are you running?..

 

Yes those are icon ucas. If you are just getting the standard travel icons you don't need ucas. Even though I don't run preload ( 0 lift ) I have the extended travel icons. So you need ucas for that. I run 285/70/17 with just the 4" in front.
