Maxtrac Spindle Lift for 2nd Gen Prerunners

keeping stock trd rims. going to run spidertrax on them so they dont rub. 285/75r 16 is what Im looking at.

 

never jk....im not sure haha...i want 35s

 

I'm guessing ur going to have some triming to do

 

i figured as much. thanks everyone.

 

I originally had 285's in the Terra Grapplers when I first installed my lift. I had my 5100's set to 0. I didn't have to chop the cab mount but some of the plastic infront of the tires had to be trimmed away. I was running stock FJ Alloy wheels with 1.25" spacers with that setup. Once i bought some 35's, I then cranked my 5100's up to 2.5 and got the allpro expedition leaf pack and extended shocks. At this point, I had to chop the cab mount and hammer the pinch weld to subdue the rubbing. I also got 4.5" BS wheels with the 35's.

The cab mount chop is easy if you have a welding machine. The spindles will make your front end stick out 2" on each side more then the rear. Some cutting and possibly grinding/welding will depend of your exact back spacing and tire size. It's not as bad as it sems though, and is well worth the little time it takes to do.

 

This is the only thing that I really dont like about the spindle lifts. It seems really noticable on some rigs, but on others it is hardly noticable. Im assuming its because of the backspacing on peoples rims.

 

i had 1.25 spacers in the rear....and the rear stuck out farther....just a little bit though

 

I like the wider front...im running spindles plus spidertrax up front...no spacers in the rear...i like the wheels/tire sticking ~1.5" out of the fenders..

 

same

 

Cool guys

 

Yes, but you have glass fenders. I nor Zimm have glass fenders. With stock fenders, it's completely different.

 

but before the fenders i was just like you guys haha

 

True.

And as your pic shows, the front sticks out much further then the rear with stock fenders.

 

thats without spacers to! haha

 

So...the rigs that have the front sticking out much further than the back have spacers in the front and none in the back? Not so much to do with rims then? I do realize that it will stick out a little more than the back (2 inches or so). Not judging anyones preference, all the rigs look great.

 

I spy my truck in the background

 

My wheels have 3.75 bs..plus spacers in front. but i had the clear the fenders and didnt want to look funny. Love it.

 

I havent gotten my spidles yet but I wanted to see if yall thought i was going to need wheel spacers or if I was in the clear? My rim is 20" with a 33" tire. Do you think i will need the spacers?

 

Whats the bs on your rims

 

im not exactly sure how to get that meaurement but my tire is 12.5" wide if that helps at all.
