Spindle question
I saw a lift kit for my truck(99 F150 2WD) on ebay that came with 4 new shocks,(2) 3'' spindles, and blocks for the rear. my questions is when I use larger spindles, do I reuse my stock coils? or do I have to buy new longer coils for the 3'' spindle? and oes this kit seem like a good deal for $400?

are spindles easy to take out and install?

not really and yes, Im not to flamilair with 4wd drivetrains, If you've never done something like this before you may want to get someone who does to either help you with it or do it for you, also check with the spindle manufacturer you may have to run a larger wheel for the spindle to fit correctly, if memory serves me right a lowered spindle needs to have a 17 or more size wheel on it
