blisterfingers or other CST 8" owners

blisterfingers,

What's your impression of the lift.

On the CST site the spindles appear to be welded together. Is this true? Do you think they are stronger than the cast spindles that come in the Fabtech, Pro-Comp, or Skyjacker kits?

What about the steering? It appears to be all heim joints? What do you think about it?

Does the CST kit use the factory shocks/springs?

Thanks,
Rich

If you have any more pictures I'd really appreciate you sending some to me.

Strong Lift, all parts are overkill. Yes the spindles are welded, and massive. The kit uses the front springs and shocks, Rancho 9000 on rear. Heim steering parts are, again, overkill. The truck rides like stock only 8" higher, more w/35" tires. 37" in garage waiting for wheels with correct backspace. Backspace is critical with these IFS lifts.
