Default What can i add to a spindle lift?

Ive got a 3" spindle lift in the front with a 1.5" block in the back. It clears 33s fine but i want to go higher without new spindles..goal is to clear 35-36" tires.

You could try to find a coil spacer or a lift coil for the front of the truck, I prefer the coil spring myself. However you may have to switch to an aftermarket upper control arm to keep the balljoints happy, I had to do so when I went from just a 3" spindle to a 6" spindle and coil on my Silverado.

I have 3" coil spacers. They messed up the geometry of the suspension and made it ride terrible. Might have to sell the spindles and get bigger ones i guess.

A 2" should be alright and help the ride.
