    Are you sure? Usually they are 7 ft taller at least.

    I'm looking into getting me a set of these maxtrac 4" lift spindles, the installation doesn't look to bad but I've never done is so does anyone have any ideas if I'm gonna need any other parts other than the spindles and brake lines themselves or even better anyone that would install them at reasonable price in the San Antonio, Austin area? Or if anyone may have a pair up for sale

    Sup man! I would get @Texoma to do the install.

    The spindles will come with extended front brake lines.

    Appreciate the quick feed back Chad.

    Texoma, awesome what does something like that run and where do you normally do the installs, I just recently installed my suspension so I might need to save a little extra cash so I'm trying to figure out if I need any other extra parts I might need +install

    It’s super easy to install. The only thing you’ll need besides the regular tools is a 10mm flare nut wrench for the brake lines. A lot of people strip the nuts on the brake lines by using different wrenches. Also, start spraying the nuts and bolts on the brake lines and original spindles a couple days before the lift. It will make the removal of all the components a lot easier. It looks like you have someone that will help install it. You’ll be amazed at how easy it is to do. Good luck with it and post some pics afterwards!

    The only thing you’ll need to figure out is what you want to lift the rear with, blocks, AAL,or full leaf packs.

    I have a 2" block in the rear but I plan on doing an aal later on, I read somewhere that I may need wheel spacers since I'm running 16" wheels?

    It depends on the backspacing you have on the 16s. Spacers may be needed. Also, if you’re gonna go with an AAL also, you might want to look at longer brake lines in the rear and longer shocks. You’ll have to see what it’s like once you’re done installing. The shocks will fit, but they will be stretched quite a bit. It will lessen your downward travel of the rear axle. The brake lines may be long enough though.

    If you’re gonna run just the blocks in the rear, you’ll be fine with everything in the rear suspension.

    Diggin deep back in the archive but was their a reason you went with TC LCAs and not the LSK LCAs? Was LSK not able to fab something up to make their LCA work with the maxtrac spindles?

    You're not kidding about reaching back....LOL
    LSK didnt make stock length LCA's at the time.....plus LCA's were just a dream at this time in my build but these TC LCA's popped up for 600 bucks and who can turn down a smokin deal like that. I made spacers to make the TC arms work with the maxtrac spindles.
