    Removed the Mud Flaps, Rock Deflectors and Head Rest. Limo Tint, I had 3" Toytec Lift, Procomp Nitrogen ES6000 shocks and Struts. AllPro UCA, AFE Pro Dry drop in filter, WeatherTecs. Now I have LR UCA's, Maxtrac Spindles, Eibach's, 5100's up front, Expos, 5160 for the rear, U Bolt Flip Kit, and Extended Brake lines.
    Does anyone else see that also. Should I get a 1.5" spacer match the front?

    Can you do coillovers with spindles and not do UCA's?

    You don't usually need uca's until you lift using the coils 3" or more... spindles just move the hub down and don't change the suspension geometry.

    thanks for the info. i was looking at fox's non-resi c/o. their non-resi c/o are only made in "extended travel". their website said that these need aftermrket UCA's. Im only looking at their non-resi because they are about $200 cheaper. is this correct that "extened travel c/o" have to have aftermarket UCA's?

    What are you guys running in the rear besides Bilsteins? I'm going with the AllPro Exp leafs (4" unloaded) and I want to run nicer rear shocks than billies. But Icons show as 0-2 lift on DSM, I'm looking at the Fox shocks on all-pro's website but they don't show any specifics.

    it should since the expos stated 3" lift but really gave me 4-5". just give all pro a quick call and ask them what size shock you need to run with the expos if they say 10" shock then those are the dimensions for the billy 5150's, and if your looking for a different manf. then i would look for a shock with those dimensions or close to it.

    Okay cool guys. I emailed AllPro and Kurtis said 9.5 travel.. So can you use a shock w/ 10" of travel?

    that setup will grant u 5.5" of lift in the front vs your 2" in the rear, now obviously factory rake will put u at maybe a grand total of 3.5" of rear lift but it really all depends on the condition of your leaf springs. either way you should be nose high with that setup.
