How long have you had them on? and if you can send some more shots to both ecfiffer@hotmail.comnospam and eric.pfeifer@hill.af.milnospam I need some sweet ass trucks to study while i defend the country from porn :tongue: man my job is hard!

no the hub on the hds is different than than the ld. i think the hds hub base is a square with 4 bolts instead of the triangle shape with 3 bolts like ours have.

I'm running the original welded CST spindles, not the newer/cheaper cast ones. The cast ones sell between 400-500. I paid $849 for the welded ones. Both of KRAZYMATT's pics show welded spindles.
PerformanceLifts webpage (http://performancelifts.com/cgi-bin/cart/CSS-C1-3.html) showing my spindles.

I really want to go bigger, with the 11" CST kit, but the wife is fighting me on it. She screwed up by saying she would rather see me get a H2 than lift it higher, so I've been doing some shopping... (little does she know what I would do to an H2 :D )

It may be a few months before I'd part the truck out. I keep you both posted.

So CST now makes a cast spindle? I cant seen them doing away with the steel spindle for a cast one like everyone else runs. But if that is true they made a stupid move to lower thier quality :imo:

I also ran the steel spindle and loved it. Fit good and looked stout as hell. Its worth the extra $$$ if you have it,
