Maxtrac Spindle Lift for 2nd Gen Prerunners

Sure will the second it's out the shop =)

 

Anyone know how much it would be to get a 4 inch front and back?

 

I have 17x9 with 0 offset and 5” back spacing. Would I be able to fit the wheels with the spindle lift or do I need a spacer? Right now with stock suspension I have maybe a centimeter or less of space between the whee and the spindle

 

No, you have to have the minimum of 4.75” backspacing. You’d need to get spacers or new rims.

 

Bummer. Do you know if installing the spindle is as hard/easy as installing other suspension lifts? I've seen videos on other suspension lifts and it doesn't look to hard, but cant find many videos on spindle lift installs. Thanks

 

It’s super easy! When you do it, you’ll reverse the outer tie rods on the new spindles. The stock spindles have the tie rods bolts facing up. The new spindles have the tie rods face down. Also, the bolts at the bottom of the spindle that hold the lower ball joints to the spindles need to be torqued at 115ft lbs. if you don’t tighten them to that, you’ll have a clunk that will drive you nuts and vibrations that will make you think your truck's tires are gonna fly off.

 

Looks great, man!

 

it's been awhile since I last posted in here lol, recently tried on some 15x8s with 35x12.50s and they fit pretty good. Sadly have to remove them here soon since these are the wheels/tires for my project truck haha. But I was surprised I was able to clear 15s with the spindles and 2" spacers

 

Love the look tho. Project truck is coming along well!

 

Hey Guys, I'm looking at the 4" spindles and 2" 3 leaf AAL hoping for level setup. My question is about the width of the stance. My aftermarket wheels are 18" w/ 5" backspacing so I don't think I need wheel spacers, but I read on Headstrong that the stance of the spindles is 0.75" wider than stock. Do I need spacers for just the back to keep the tires even? or 1" front / 1.25" rear?

 

They are in fact .75" wider in the front. It would be pretty tough to notice that under normal circumstances, I never really did unless I was parked against a curb or painted line. If you want them dead even then try to find a 3/4" spacer for the rear. Or get staggered spacers for front/rear that combine to make them even. I've got a set of 1.25" spidertrax that have only seen a few hundred miles, need to sell them for some 2".

 

are the two bolts pictured causing the clunking sound some people are hearing cause I’m getting a clunking sound

 

Yes. Did you torque them to 112-119ft lbs? That’s what they call for. Mine was clunking and shaking and it all quit after I torqued them.

 

Just purchased expos with 15% off, $272 shipping still hurts though. Still need to order b110s and spindles from headstrong and new wheels and 33s before I slap everything on

 

Hell yeah, just piece it together. Snapped a pic the other day while I was getting a few things from the parts counter.

 

​

Those meats look sick

 

minus the whole scrubbing at 3/4 lock and the lugs trying to rip my fender off in reverse...these things are awesome! I just need to get my caster pushed forwards lmao

 

​

Can a brother get some specs on the total w/t setup? Love the poke out back (that's what she said )

Seriously though, looks good. Need deets

​

 

haha, yeah I forgot to add those lmao, also a. better sideish shot of the poke. I think these poke out a tad more than my last wheels. But they are a set of 17x8.5 SCS Ray10s in Matte Grey with a set of 37x12.50r17 Toyo MTs
