Which company did you go with? Those 4" spindles look nice, but they seem ridiculously high priced for just the spindles. Plus you can't run the stock wheels according to the website, which is a must for me right now.

The 4" are CST I think, direct fit no mods to get them to fit. I did the $270 chassis tech ones from airbagit.com

Now I just have to order shackles and rear shocks.

Yeah, the CST are 4", and they are stupid expensive. Plus their website state that you cannot use the factory offset wheels, but does not say why.

Did they finally work out the "kinks" in their 3" spindles? I'd like to buy now before I'm forced into a mandatory spending lock down LoL

The Eibach 2nd gen rear lowering shackles from Advance Auto are really cheap. They're sitting in my garage right now, waiting for the front lift.

Meltorres, I LOVE your truck. I hope you don't mind but I used it for one of my FIRST attempts at a "fantasy" graphic. I'm learning to make them, and hopefully I can get better to do trucks like yours justice...but anyways...what do you think?
(Couldn't find a way to upload the bigger one w/ better resolution...)

I really appreciate the compliments!!! The picture looks great, what software are you using to do that with?? Me and my friend are going to take pictures soon once his show challenger is finished and Id be interested to see what kind of editing you could do to them. Let me know if you could help us out.
Thanks
