i found some used fabtech 3"lift spindles on the web and the guy is asking 175 for them are they worth that?and what would i need for the rear suspension if i put these on my 97 reg cab 2wd?

 

Howdy-

That's a great price. I paid $800 (installed) for mine, and I'm very happy with them.

As far as the rear goes, I would go with 2" blocks. That will give you a perfectly level look. You'll need new "U" bolts and self-locking nuts, though. All in all about $75.

Good luck!

p.s. - Don't get talked into a "helper" spring, unless you carry a ton of stuff, because your ride will be monstrous. Just block it, and keep your factory ride- it's still a suspension lift!

Good luck-

i know that at one time fabtech spindels were doing something wrong(i dont remember, id do a serch but its not working ) so i guess if you can find out when thry were made. good luck and a good price, because blocks a bolts are not that expensive

 

Regardless who makes the spindles, just make sure that they are not spindles that require you to change the orientation of your lower ball joints from pointing down to pointing up. They are the old style and aren't made that way anymore. You want spindles that are a direct replacement, no ball joint changes. Also, that's a good price.
