sounds good. I was thinking about seeing what coilover would fit in explorer lower arm and have roadbully make a adapter spacer so maybe lik a longer shock plus the spacer.

 

[chris's2005]

well it isnt anything we didnt know already, its the same type of spacer ben makes

What size tire is he running?

 

[chriswells78]

I can't believe that after like 4 years of this place selling these, nobody that has purchased one has joined this forum and said how their stuff was set up.

 

[chris's2005]

What size tire is he running?

i think he said 305 70 16 (which is the same as 285 75 16 but wider)

Man i am about ready to go down and buy one of these things just to get the mystery over with once and for all.

I EMAILED GOOD GUYS ABOUT THERE LIFT

WOOHOO they answered me


here is what they said

"spindle and body lift with fox shocks new wheels see on line www.buyfromgoodguys.com"

Spindle lift = 2wd
I wonder if its a aftermarket spindle or if they use a ball joint spacer like Toyota aftermarket sometimes does?

 

[peder25]

i noticed most of the lifted x's are 2wd that they sell

 

[macknos94]

I did see in truckn mag that a company sold 3 inch lift spindles for the 2wd. they were like 170 I believe. wish they would make a set for the 4wd/awd

 

[shadowless127]

wish they would make a set for the 4wd/awd

Why? Just get a set of 3" Spacers from Ben... Proven solution for an easy lift for 3rd gens.
