    I know a guy who had 35 mudd grapplers on his taco and im running the trail grapplers. I get way better gas mileage then his. His tires are really heavy there beefy as hell but they do the job the stick to everything. I was going to get the mudd grapplers but everyone told me they are loud as hell and should only be used on weekends when offroading.

    You say spindles, but what are the benefits to spindle's over a drob bracket with a prerunner? Spindles only go 4" in height, would you add a spacer to get to 6"? Will spindels work with my LR UCA's and 5100's?

    Sweet, I didn't want to have to get rid of them just to get something new, not squatin' out gold nuggets over here. Spindles and the drop bracket kits seem to be around the same price, does it really matter which way I go on this lift if i'm just a 2wd prerunner?

    Uh no, it's a mall crawler, I don't do enough offroading to justify LT, i'm still iffy about going more than 3" seeing as I do move some lumber and couches everynow and again, don't know how practical 6" would be for me.
