Im getting ready for the 4" spindles as well. I just put on new uppers with ball joints, heavy duty ones. How many of you that installed 4" spindles HAD to put on those damn pricey uppers? I do NOT want too, after putting on heavy duty good ones. This is the 1st ive heard about HAVING to replace uppers with those..

I found out I can use the OEM control arms mine are still stocked so I’m getting new ones and the camber bolts and they will work plus I can also adjust my 3” torsion keys so I can add 1” on top of the 4” spindles plus don’t forget to add 1” to ever 2” of tire size from the factory tires
