    I got it off of ebay a long time ago but I think its doestch (spelling?). I think I got the spindles alone for less than $300 new. I would just look around online and try to find them as cheap as you can, I think they are normally like 400ish. Check out springtech on ebay I think they have spindles with blocks that are priced pretty good.

    it was pretty dang close...I dont remember if it was perfect but it was a lot better than stock and with 265's it looked pretty good. I had the daystar polyurethane one first and didnt like it cause it like squeezed out and made the spring bow out, I got a set of metal ones that go in the bottom of the lower control arm and they have been perfect!

    Westcoast: my truck has a 3.5" spindle lift and 1.5" coil spacers and 3" blocks in the rear. Im running 285/75r17 (33.8"x11.6") nitto terra grapplers with fx4 takeoff wheels.

    Alex: yes I ran the oem shocks until it had 113,000 miles and they were blown-out! I recently got bilstein 5100's and the truck rides great again

    What lift do you have? And size tires? I want to get a leveling kit, spindle lift and 3" blocks in the rear.

    Thanks

    awhile back there was a guy on eBay selling the spindles for $215 plus tax. I am not sure which brand they are but I havent had a single issue with them so as far as Im concerned I scored! I would just look around online and try to find them as cheap as you can, I think they are normally like 400ish. Check out springtech on ebay I think they have spindles with blocks that are priced pretty good. when I had 265's I was running a 2" block with a little "cali rake" but it didnt look right with the bigger tires so I went ahead and got 3" blocks and it sits maybe .5" higher in the front. Thanks for the compliment!
