Fabtech who specialize in 4x2 lifts are coming out with a newly redesigned spindle in a 2-3 weeks, I have the 3 1/2 in fabtech lift and waiting for them so I can go higher.
Bullseye also makes them.
but before you buy make sure how high you want to go, I heard mixing and matching may void other companies warrantees...thats why im waiting, darm it..

Biddaddyxl,
I have the 3" spindle(procomp/bulleye) and 2" blocks in the back with 285/75/16 and have no complaints. The tires clear all around, but i had to take the front mud guards off because they were rubbing. Besides that i think spindles are the way to go. I tried the coils and hated them. They messed up my ride not to mention all the stress it was applied to the steering rods. I hope this hepls, by the way if you go 285's you do not have to get the body lift.
