    So guys, im new to the suspension game,

    1. I've decided i want the spindles(its a no brainer for prerunners)
    2. What would i need for the front/rear
    3. My BFG 265/70/16 have about another year left on them.
    4. What sorta cost would i be looking at for a front/rear setup?

    Thanks :)

    All depends on how high you ant to go. If you want it for looks or actually plan to beat it up.

    And what's your budget? Then we can give you a pretty good estimate of what you can get.

    Are you looking for cost effective or did you win the lottery?

    Maxtrac are the cheapest and a true 4" from what I have seen. No problems that I have heard of. Stick with stock uca's and shocks/ springs depending on budget and condition.


    For the rear an AAL will work if you are tight on funds. Just measure from and rear the decide what size AAL u need

    Measure the hub to fender front and rear then do the math. Add 4 to the front and then see what you need to add to the rear to level it or sit rear an inch high if you want.

    alot soon. hopefully
    I just did my lift about a week and half ago. Spindles up front, 2in add a leaf in the rear and 5100's all around set at 0 with stock springs . Stock measurement from center hub were 21in up front and 23 in the rear. After lift I got 25in up front and 25 1/8in in the rear. It's settled at 25 up front and rear now. Perfectly leveled.

    I'm also running 265/70-17 tires and I think it looks just fine.. It looks really good in my opinion.

    Sounds like your truck might have been a little bit taller from the beginning. I thought most (including mine) measured in at 20" before the spindle lift. Already got your alignment done? Might settle some more down the road...

    I've got Camburgs w/5100s at .85. Instead of going to 1.75 on the 5100s I'm considering dropping the 5100s to 0 and replacing my springs w/Eibachs to get the additional .75 inches or so of lift I'm looking for.

    For those of you who've done similar, what do your camber and caster specs look like? Are you running stock UCAs? Thanks
