    ahh but theirs a new card on the table for us (5lugs). A guy out of cali has been designing a new lift spindle for 5 lug trucks. Its basically already done, all it needs is to be re-modified to fit with our break calipers.

    Anyway back on topic. Its a 3-4'' lift spindle then you have to include my spacer lift. Not to sure if I want to leave the spacer on or not once I put these spindles on. But my new challenge is figuring out a rear suspension setup that will sit my truck level. 5Lugs have SUA not SOA. So What do I need to do to give my rear end an extra 4'' or so???:confused::confused::confused:

    Edit: link to the spindle lift page. http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/lo...sports-lift-spindle-2nd-gen-5-lug-tacoma.html

    Yeah 4" in a sua setup is tough to lift cheaply, because blocks and longer shackles will actually lower you. How much would switching to SOA set you back?

    I have no idea... To be honest I dont even know how the conversion would be done. I read about a guy who installed a 6 lug leaf pack but he said he ended up sitting a little lower I think?

    Yep that makes sense. Anything that acts to raise a 6 lug (SOA) will actually lower a 5 lug (sua). I think the SOA conversion would be best but I have no clue how much it costs or if it's even feasible without lots of fabrication.

    FML... Is there any way to just buy a leaf pack for a SUA that would provide 3-4'' of lift?
