You like the setup on yours I take it? I'd like to pull the trigger while summit has it on sale!! lol

Thanks,
He’s using Willwood spindles that work with the QA stuff. QA says you need to use 73 up spindles or ream to fit your upper ball joint which is what I did on my truck.
Also beware if your running 15” tires with tire height of 27” or less you’ll only have ~ 2 1/2 “ clearance from shock bracket to the Ground. That’s the only thing I didn’t like. I bought new wheels and tires that should be here in a week or two
Going from 15/60s to 20/45 to gain some clearance. I have a set of Stock 73 spindles that will add back the 2 1/2 if I need them
