If you want the spindles then order some Santuffs. You will have to build upper and lower control arms.

Ride height looks great. What size of tires are you sitting it up for - 10.5 class? How much did you end up narrowing the rear-end? Fab'd or 9" rear-end?

We are trying to get some more pics posted.

David the car is on 29.5 X 10.5 S tires. The rear is a fabricated 9" we built in house. I will look on the length. The customer supplied the wheels and I stuck them under the car where I wanted them and built the housing from there.

They start at $40 000.00. All you supply is wheels and tires.
