Gave me enough to fit the 235/75-15’s with some rubbing at speed or with a load. Bottom pic,added Fabtech 3” lift spindles up front,and an Add a Leaf in the rear. Got that used shell for 75 bucks and slid in a carpet kit.

    Rockauto,don’t remember how much,but they were decently cheap. When did the springs i also did the Daystar 1 1/2” coil spacers which is really 3/4”. When all was said and done the suspension was “topped out”,which made it steer kind of sticky,but once i installed the Fabtech 3” lift spindles it gained some clearance off the upper bump stops,and now it handles like a dream!! P.S. you can go straight to the spindle swap. Pull the wheel and remove the dust cover on the axle nut,put the wheel back on n set it down,crack the nut loose n remove wheel. After removing the caliper,bracket and hub,its just 1 nut on the upper ball joint,and 2 bolts holding the lower ball joint to the knuckle (spindle).
