Maxtrac Spindle Lift for 2nd Gen Prerunners

My rear lift is 3 1/4" over stock after the leafpacks settled and i only run a carrier bearing drop and have no vibes. Just as an example

 

Ok thanks, do they come in different thicknesses?

 

Yes, most common is 1/4", then 1/2", 3/4",1", 1.5"

 

I run a 1.5" from 4crawler offroad..no problems

 

On your carrier bearing right?

 

Or the driveshaft spacer?

 

This. 4crawler off-road sales the DS spacer not the carrier bearing one.

 

No..but I do run
the 1.25" carrier drop from beefed taco

yes

Yes

 

Yours is almost my pre 2012 twin

 

Alright so heres the lift i'm thinking about getting.

Front:
Maxtrac spindles up
bilstein 5100's set at 0 w stock coils (want to keep it at 4")

Rear:
All pro 3" standard leaf pack/ Extended brake lines
bilstein 5125/5100? Not sure which to get for up to 3 inch in the rear
All pro u bolt flip kit

Any recommendations on what else I'll need would be very much appreciated. Also gonna run this set up with stealth 6 wheels and a 33" tire. Not sure which one yet though. Thanks guys.

 

I am running the same exact thing you posted. I like it

 

Hi all, I'm planing on install the lift kit from headstrong.
-4" spindle
-2" rear block
-rear shock that they provide, don't know the brand.

I already have ask a member who has the kit and he doesn't have any complain.
Do you guys has any other input, I'm more concern about the drive train vibration that the kit can cause.

Thanks!

 

Hello,

I installed longer wheel studs on my rear axle hubs to accommodate (2) 1" slide-in BORA spacers which I ordered from Motorsport Tech:
http://www.motorsport-tech.com/wheel_spacers.html

And (2) 3/4" spacers that I ordered from Wheeladapters.com. I'll trythem both on & see how they fit but I'm almost positive that I'll go with 1".
They are made of the same type of aluminum as Spidertrax. I know that Spidertrax are awesome but these are simpler & I can just re-torque the wheels without having to remove them to torque the Spidertrax..

I also ordered a 3/4" driveshaft spacer (65mm x 65mm) but the bolt pattern is too small for my flange. I'm wondering now if I even need the driveshaft spacer. Look at the pics below & let me know what you think about the spacer thickness for these new studs & the driveshaft spacer, if I need it.

They are just under 1" longer & I want to run 1" spacers. It appears that there's still plenty of thread engagement. I'll be running the 17" FJ's like Bandit has:


You need to remove the spring that connects brake shoe with the adjuster. Then, you lay the new stud just under & to the left of the center o the axle with the tip presented in the hole. It's too long to just go in straight so once you have done this, rotate the axle counter-clockwise (drivers side) & clockwise (passenger side) & the stud will go in just far enough for you to pull it through with your hand. Then of course you secure it to the axle shaft hub:












Thanks!

 

On the rear use the f4-be5-b110-t5 5100's

 

BORNWILDGUY: Where in Florida did you get your lift from? I cant seem to find any places that actually sell it, just install it.....

 

You can look on ebay

 

Order your stuff from headstrong and talk to Marie. Best prices and awesome customer service. She was so patient with me ordering everything and when I was installing even though she didn't have any help on install she made sure I was all taken care of by contacting maxtrac for me several times

 

I would make the order with them, I'm already taking with Marie. I'm a little concern about the quality of the rear shock and the drive train vibration.

 

I have the rear shocks and no issues my way. Plus they will stand behind anything they sell. Plus you can always modify any package they sell
