How long have you been running the 2" spacer? Any noticeable wear and tear on your rear wheel bearings?

Me? I haven't ran spacers in a year or so. I probably had 10,000 miles on them. I only had them on the back so there was no wear to be had

I couldn't help but notice some eBay spindles for a better price. Anybody run these or have experience with them?

Installed the "2 inch" lift shackles in the rear over the weekend and removed the 2 inch drop shackles that have been on the truck for 20 years.

The truck sat fairly level before. Ground to lower center on the front fender measures about 32-1/4" and the rear was about 33" depending on which side of the truck. Driver side has a slight sag...

With the "lift" shackles the rear fender measures at 34-5/8" on the driver side and 35" passenger.

It does give me a 2" rear lift, but only above the leveled stance of a 2" drop shackle. So I guess my leaf springs are pretty worn in after 20 years. Lol I gained a factory stance...

But now I have a base line and if the 4" spindles in the front get me to 36" (with a 235/75r15 on it now) I'll only need a 1" - 1.5" block to get everything straightened out.

More to come...
