Show off your spindle lifts

No. You have to buy a long travel as a "kit" from camburg. The arms you already have are not stock but they are stock length. You need arms that are 3.5" wider. So you have to buy all as a set. you need this

Looks bad ass, Jay.

 

Mine's in my sig

 

do most of you guys get new UCA's with the camburg spindles? Are they necessary?

 

I don't have spindles...yet....but logic would state if you have the ability to maintain your stock geometry, the answer would be "no". I will caveat that with inevitably you'll get people would added a set of coilovers maxed out to 2.5" or something on top of the spindles, and their response will be 50/50 much like every other UCA thread I've read.

 

Thats what I was thinking. just wanted to clarify as I am determining my budget for my spindle lift.

 

how about some 1st gen spindle lift action...

 

^boo! .

 

So correct me if I'm wrong but there's no need for alignment after installing spindles correct?

 

wrong, you will need one. while it keeps stock geometry, I guarantee your alignment will not be the same as before you disconnected and removed your stock spindle from your uca and hub... lol

 

Well shiieett I saved up and am getting spindles this week but I didnt plan for an alignment. I guess I needed one anyways.

 

Definitely need an alignment. Mine was so far off it basically wasnt drivable. But I drove it a few miles back home.

 

lol if you're good you can get it pretty close by hand, but otherwise you're going to need one

 

Well ever since my last trip out to superstition the truck pulls to the right. And I drive it all day at work so the wandering bugs the shit out of me.

I might drop the 5100's to .85 though and last time I got my alignment done I could go back within 6 months and have it done again. I'll start at 2.5 on the billys, get it aligned, and if I drop it down it wont cost anything align it again

 

That's bad ass

 

BAMF

 

Good info from everyone, Thanks. I've decided on Camburg Spindles, All-Pro Expedition Leaf Pack, and just Bilstein 5100's all around. Plan on setting the fronts at .85, and then buying the 3-4" lift rears vice the 1-2" lift ones. Talked with DSM, whilel 5125s or 5150s might be more practical if I was wheeling a lot, the eye-to-stem conversion kits for the eye only shocks makes the 5150s not worth it to me because of the extra $$. Planning on running 285/70/17s with American Eagle Series 063 wheels. Last but not least, I think I'd like to get an All-Pro plate bumper or a Relentless one, not sure which one really to get, All-Pro's modular design seems nice, Relentless seems more sturdy...but doesn't come finished. Any buddy have a preference and why? AND FINALLY, I refuse to pay full price on anything so some group buy/sales better show up or my cash is staying in my pocket!

 

I would definitely drop those billies down if you are gonna put spindles on, otherwise you're going to have a major bro lean lol

 

I got the all pro 3 inch pack that I really got like 4 out of. And my going billys are only given 2 inches now so I don't think it will lean to much. I like a little bit of lean.
