    swapping to get the ride quality back. I don't expect it to be that much bigger at all, just a little more stance and much better ride.

    I should have done spindles the first time, as it really is the best way to lift a 2wd, keeping all factory geometry. Further down the line if i want to go bigger, i'll just bump my 5100s to the next notch or get some Eibachs.

    @ensaladas nice! I don't really have any complaints about my 887s. Do you want any Sport coils? :D

    No real complaints with mine either, just a good opportunity to significantly improve the rice quality. I just snagged some TRD offroads from a friend, thanks though. :)

    How are those tails holding up? I still go back and forth on those and the smoked depos but the few members who've had LEDs burn on out the later keep worrying me.

    Haha, yea I was reading his thread apparently he's overpriced alot of his stuff. So much for "hooking" members up. He wanted $320 and my stock tails.

    I tried to explain that the dealer won't give him a penny extra for those add-ons, he may as well make some of his money back while also hooking a member up, who knows.

    Yea, and my biggest thing was his taillights aren't legal. They have no red in them, and if I gave him my stocks I wouldn't be able to swap whenever I wanted.

    Depending on where you live, legal can be stretched significantly. I just wasn't a fan of the way they looked - too ricey for me. If I ever decide to do a custom black set with my factories, I will definitely sell you these for cheap. :thumbsup:

    I saw your post on the FB page. You 2wd guys have it nice with those spindles.

    Can't wait untill you can get your rear lifted a touch more!
