I heard they suck. electrical ones FTW, theyre easier to install. mostly hearsay and yes they can get expensive. I thought about doing this, roll up to the drag in a quiet truck then open them up and she roars like no other.
that is if I dont get spindles before then..

haha ya throttle bodys might work, youd prolly need stronger flapps since it will have to keep exhaust gases at bay.
and Im jackin yo thread!! ok so right now I have stock springs and coil spacers for 2in of lift. I wanna get coils that are longer, the same length as stock coils and spacers. I think it would not only look better when you get close but also work better like having more articulation using a full spring. let me use a clicky pen as an example. would it be better to have a short spring'd pen that has a piece of plastic that will sometimes not come all the way out or a longer spring that will come out everytime? ok bad example but I think you get the point.
I will get you pics of spindles in just a min.

probably, and it would ride nicer esp with my new shocks. oh and spindles are the things that go between upper and lower control arms, they turn to turn your wheels, your hub is attached to them, your brake caliper, rotor and wheels are attached to them, for YOU your driveshaft thingy for your 4wd goes thru them to give power to your wheels. steering linkage connects to your spindle as well.
