7" lift spindle.

Guy's I just have to ask, what do you think about those 7" lift spindle kits on ebay? I thought I saw someone on here who got one and installed it but I lost the thread. I must admit that if it works it would be a pretty inexpensive way to lift my truck. What do you think.

A member said he was getting one, but he hasn't posted a review. Personally, I doubt it's a good idea. Otherwise why would all of the major suspension companies only make 3.5 inch lift spindles?

HEY GUYS, I HAVE THE SPINDLES ON MY TRUCK. I LOVE THEM. I HAVE PUT ABOUT 1700 ON THEM AND HAVE NOT ONE COMPLAINT. IVE BEEN WANTING TO PUT SOME PICKS UP FOR YOU BUT I DONT HAVE A DIGITAL CAMERA. THAT MAKES IT HARD. ANYWAY ILL GET SOME PICKS UP ON TUES. IM OFF FROM WORK AND I THINK I CAN GET THEM TO DEVELOPE THE PICS TO A DISC FOR ME. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THEM PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME, BRETT_LIV@HOTMAIL.COM I HIGHLY SUGGEST THESE FOR THE 97-03 GUYS. ALSO THE PEOPLE THAT SELL THESE ARE REALLY COOL THEY WERE HELPFUL AND KEPT IN GOOD TOUCH THROUGHOUT THE SHIPPING PROCESS.

Hey brett, how far do the wheels stick out in the front, cause on the picture they use on their auction they look pretty far out.

To Be Honest It Looks Like About 1.5" Wider In The Front Than In The Back On Each Side. Im Not Exactly Sure How Much Is The Lift And How Much Is The Wheel. I Run 18x9's. I Think It Looks Great Though.

Hey did the kit come with everything you need cause in the picture it looks like only 2 shocks instead of 4?

yes the kit is complete. because the truck is lifted 7" in the front completely with the spindle all other components are stock. like springs shocks arms. now for those interested in buying, i highly recomend purchasing a aftermarket set of shocks for the front that are much better quality(procomp rancho you know) and having them installed with the lift. the stock shocks just cant handle the 35's like i want them to. i wish i had thought about this before but now im stuck paying the labor again to swap the front shocks. but it does give me an excuse to go ahead and get the full set of 9000x with the in cab controller!
