    Maxtrac spindles are 4" lift. Their advertised 6.5" kits are 4" spindles combined with 2.5" lift coilovers or top plate spacers. You won't be able to stack another 3" spacer kit on top - the ball joints or tie rods will run out of travel.

    There's a company making 14" lift drop-bracket truss kit if you're interested, compatible with both 2WD and 4WD.

    9.5" is going to be turning big wheels and tires.
    Any ideas on the gears you'll be running?
    Any engine mods you have considered.

    There a lot more that comes with a "big lift" than just a lift.

    I havn't figured out which transmission i would go with yet but i would either go with a super charger or engine swap to a Toyota brand diesel V8 based out of Australia.

    Thanks for the info, I think If i did the lift I would swap out the coil overs to bilsteines rated for the size and from their stack a level and potentially add in a ball joint spacer. I would also definitely get aftermarket control arms.

    I wouldn't even bother with a Magnuson supercharger for this application.
