    swap to mk3 supra front spindles, acts like a drop spindle (1in ish) and moves the wheel forward a bit.




    what size blocks are you running in back?

    i have 3 inch blocks with the main leaf and the overload flipped my goal is to have the mud flaps touching the ground and im about an inch away from that happining and im already notched so there would be no clearence issues there

    the mklll that is a third gen correct?

    Yeah. But it does push the wheel forward and it looks a little odd. I read about it and think there are a couple othe little things about that I didn't like. No more 14s for example from the bigger brakes.

    you could try the ball joint flip, but it IS DANGEROUS.

    dont care what others say, but depending on a balljoint to hold your truck off the ground and handle the weight of the truck is crazy.




    or get ahold of seth @ twistedminis and see if he can make you some drop spindles.
