they say with the CST spindle lift that the titan gets raised leveled?? How if it lifts "4 inches" are they just wrong? Ive also read on this board that they saw a titan with just the front end lifted with these and that it looked just like it had a leveling kit...I wanted to get the spindle kit to add to my 2.5 spacer but will it make an actual 4 inch (+) difference? Will my truck be 6.5 inches tall in the front??

call Greg. He will have an answer for you. Besides if you add it to your spacer, wont the upper control arm hit the coil bucket? Also I thought it wasn't reccomended to keep the spacers when doing any kind of other lift to the truck.

nah, its been posted beofr a few times I believe even with greg that the spacers can be kept...I have asked him in the past as well but am just confirming with the others who have seen this lift in person or have it themselves...

you can keep the spacers, Greg did tell me you would have 6-6.5" of total lift. If you still wanted it level he could make some blocks for the rear to bring it back level. This is my plan when I get some $$$. It is ALOT cheaper than getting a 6" lift.

ye I have spoken with Greg about this and when I get this hes gonna get me some blocks to lift the rear slightly higher even so I can retain some rake still BUT this isnt like going with my question...I have read here and on the other boards that it doesnt really lift the 4 inches...BUT I wanna hear from the people who got this and/or have seen it and so they can confirm that it actually does lift 4 inches...if u go to the ebay site the people say it will make the truck level? so if it lifts 4 inches how could it make it level?

The spindle gives 4 inches of lift just like the name says it does.

The problem with this is the first part of the address..."ebay..." 99% of sellers dont even stock or have ever seen the parts they sell (called "drop shipping"). Now im not bashing ebay as it keeps alot of prices very low. But the info posted there is rarely backed-up. Many of the parts are copies that someone will wait until a product is developed and on the market for sometime then will copy it and sell it in a face-less market like that. Nearly every add for suspension parts for the Titan sold on ebay has flaws or is misleading. "will clear 33" tires" no kidding, stock titan's will clear 33's. "can return back to stock" yeah, with a welder, plasma cutter, and good fabrication skills. Often pictures of the wrong product... showing coilover packages when the kit doesnt include them. " 2" drop shackle" the shackle is 2" longer, only drops about 3/4-7/8". Just misleading. Be careful shopping there, typically having to return a product will put you well over any savings you get initially. That being said. THe 4" spindle will leave the rear about 1.5" lower than the front.

aight cool, I was just wanting someone to tell me this really does raise the 4 inches cuz I had read even on the boards (like Ive said) that some people saw a titan with the 4in spindles ONLY and that it did NOT look raised 4 inches...so I dunno...I wouldnt buy from ebay anyway greg...ur the man for suspension, just waiting for some cash
