    Do you guys think I should try to get the clamps and washers through maxtrac or could I find the right sized alternatives at a hardware store?

    I wanna get these spindles next month. How is everyone's VSC behaving? I tried searching and didn't find much info with anybody having VSC issues running these spindles. Saw a lot of people with VSC probs, mainly 4x4's.

    Also, if I'm all stock up front (besides the maxtracs), will a 2 inch block level me out in the rear if I have the stock 4-leaf pack? My intention is to get the All-Pro standard pack, but that won't be for a few more months. I can live with a block for that long.

    Thanks.

    I originally had the spindles up front with a 2" block in the rear and I was a tad higher in the front about 1" but I have the smaller stock leaf pack so you might be ok. I think a 3" block would be best but I'm not sure how much more lift you will get out of your leaf pack vs mine. The pic in my sig was spindles and 2" block....

    But it doesn't "activate" wanting to cause vehicular manslaughter does it? lol That's my worry. I can live with a light.

    Thanks. Yeah, maybe my extra leaf spring will level out a little better with the 2" block. The lean in your pic isn't bad.

    Steel braided brake lines might help.

    The bracket should be cut off but I'm not sure that would stop the issue. Take s picture of the routing of the line?

    The brake line bracket mounts to the spindle but the part that sticks out should be bent or trimmed according to maxtrac so it doesn't hit the sway bar but not sure why the line would rub...

    looking to replace shocks and add spacer lift...I do not off road at all just like the height of a lift
    definitely settled on spindles, is this complete kit any good?


    Not sure about the block in the rear, dont want to give up a lot in terms of ride quality...should I piece this thing out or grab this kit? do not want bro lean...want the front to sit just lower than the rear

    just found this kit available as well (4th kit down last one on the page):


    http://www.headstrongoffroad.com/complete-lift-kits-tacoma-05-6-lug.html


    Also I am going to be running my stock TRD sport 17' rims...tire wise, either going with 265/70/17 - 285/75/17...

    will i need spacers because of using factory wheels?
    which tires would work the best?

    I do not go off-road, this is purely for looking good with a nice lift and putting some nice tires underneath.
