    theoretically you could take the 6" spindles from the procomp or fabtech kits and put them on your 3" setup for added lift.

    The reason you cant run the spindles on 4wd is because the spindles dont have holes for your axle shafts... Which could be solved really easily..

    Why dont they make spindle lifts for 4wd? angles too extreme?

    I would figure the angles would be too much...

    You would still have to add the new cross member so the LCA's can be mounted in the correct location for the spindles.

    you will be happy with the results of the 5100's- I was impressed when I switched from just the yellow TRD Bilstiens that came on my truck. The truck handled like a truck, not a sponge!

    OK this is probably gonna sound stupid and if it does you have the right to punch me. i have the pc stage 1 lift with the spacers. would it be worth while to take out the 6 inch spacer and put in a 3 inch spacer with a set of 3 inch 5100 or should i just buy a coil over kit? downsouth whats your 6 inch coilover kit cost?

    so i looked into it and this one guys said i can get away with the billy 5100 cranked out to 3" with a spacer on top for a total of six inches of lift and i can take out the big six inch spacer.

    a guy running the same lift as me has been prototyping their 6" COs designed for the Procomp lift. They add a few inches of travel over stock and i believe they cost around $700

    so far so good according to him, and he wheels hard and often
