where did you get the 3" spindle from and do you think it will bring the front end of the truck up like the 2.5 spacer did but without the control arm issue?

the spindles I bought from Aggie on DT. If you look at the lift spindles v/s the OEMs, they are the same length and shape wise so they don't change anything on the front end. The difference is that where the hubs mount they are 3" lower which put the truck higher. The control arms and everything else stay the same. So if you just do a spindle lift then you will level the truck.
