    With just the spindles they should look good. But if you get that TW bug you may get it lifted then after a bit decide you want it just a little higher and get 5100's, adj coilovers or springs etc. At least thats what I did. :eek:
    If you plan on going much higher then the Maxtracs and you might want to go bigger.


    Sounds great to me!

    Well after reading 200+ pages of this thread I finally have decided, and here it is. 4" Maxtrac spindles, Billies w/einbach springs, LR UCA's, All Pro Expos, Spidertrac spacers, 285/65/18 Nitto Trail grapplers on 18x9 XD misfits.

    A big thanks to all the regular posters on here for the great info. I'm a little nervous doing this myself but I have always liked doing stuff myself, hope it goes well. Will get pics up later when done.

    I'm getting some vibes/shakiness in my steering wheel. I got an alignment done and I thought it'd fix it, and it helped it a little, but it's definitely still there. Is this somewhat normal or could there be a problem with the way the spindles were installed? What should I be checking?

    Are you running wheels spacers on the front and are they hubcentric if you are?

    Tire balance, warped rotor, tie rods. Nothing in the spindle would cause it minus a bent spindle. I had some issues and I replaced outer tie rods and and about 70% cleared up. Replaced inner 100% gone.

    Just to be sure, you did rotate the tie rod ends 180* before mounting right?

    Need advice please, cant decide on some UCAs! Just purchased my maxtrac spindles from Headstrong offroad. Im looking at the camburg uniball, total chaos, or light racing UCAs. Whats your guys opinions on these 3? Also, would anyone be able to help with installation of the spindles/UCAs? Or know of a place in the IE or OC that has decent pricing? Thanks in advance!
