Obviously you are very misinformed. Every "Real" lift uses some sort of lift spindle. You clearly have no clue what you are talking about.

They were really just a temporary set until i found new tires for the wheels. I had no rubbing at all with them, but my rims are 9" wide and 14" wide tires were way too much for them and looked really ballooned. Plus I still hadn't regeared so it was very sluggish to say the least.

Hey now, don't be hating. I hear you can get an extra half inch by stacking garden hoses. All you have to do is grind the bump stop off of the UCA's so it quits banging the springs everytime you hit a pot hole.

I see you went back and edited your previous post Sir Tool. If you've never seen these spindles in person, then you have no room to talk. They are massive and way more solid than the puny ones from ford that I took off the truck. As for crumbling and snapping, I've jumped a cattle gap going 40 mph one very late night and none of that happened to me. I guess I must of just found a golden set then.
