Has anybody heard of them breaking? I ask because I was on a .........

Wait for it.




A Ford forum, yes I bow my head in shame!

A guy posted that he installed them on 3 trucks and they all ended up snapping off he says. I'm sure anything can happen but has anyone heard of this?

on a street queen they should be fine. i would check your wheel bearings everytime you change your oil.

Ive checked them every 3 weeks since i installed the spindles and they are fine, funny thing though when i had my Fabcrap 7.5" lift i had to change wheel bearings every three months.........That got old!!

im almost willing to bet, since ive seen you post on other forums about your bad luck with that kit and i just thought about it now, its possible you couldve got the wrong springs.

also did the person you sold the kit to use it?

Yeah maybe , they were long and heavy lol.

The guy that got my kit is putting it on a suburban so it's probably fine for him.
