Just got done putting the 5.5" lift on, and its BIG change from just the body lift. Here are the pics. With just the body lift I had about 7ish inches of clearance between my tires and the fenders and now there is 13 exactly.
This is the old spindles vs. the new ones.
Old coils vs. new.
These are the only halfway decent pictures that I have as of now of the truck completely lifted.
^^^Those are 33.4" inch tires .
Thats all I got BUT I will have a ton more tomorrow.

Hold on.. so you want to see the of the stock spindle and the lift spindle?? You got me all
ya, Id like em back to back. or i guess with a tape measure going their length. just to compare their differences. oh be sure you get a front/front to rear side shot so we can see how much yo wheels stick out.
I dont have any other pics of the lift spindles next to the stock ones. I really dont wanna go take them off either, but I can post pictures of the length of the stock vs. the lift spindles. They are the exact same length if thats what you are wondering. Bolt in that same place, and have all the same holes.. just thicker and the wheel mounts lower.
They dont stick out at all. It says on the manual that doestch lift spindles dont increase track width. They front tires are the exact same as the back ones.
Thats exactly what I was thinking, but I dont know what kind I want . I need to get the dang thing re-geared though. I am rolling on a 3:55 LS differential
i had 3.55 ls with a 4.2 wasnt really that bad. Just slow as hell
I ran TSL's but you probably dont need anything that aggressive. Baja Claws would look nice so would MTZ's if they make em in 36's
Dang. Well I plan on running 4:56's. I had planned on running some Baja Claws in a 315/75 but I was told that if I cut on the valance that I could run 325's... which thats alot of tire for me.
That's pretty sweet that they don't stick out. I guess the next 400 bucks I get I'm gonna have to do this one since I've already got my stuff for the rear.
