I show how to remove and install the front Spindles on a Chevrolet Silverado 1500. This is the same procedure if your are installing lowering Spindles. It's also the same for a GMC Sierra as well. This should be the same procedure for 99-07 model Chevy/GMC 1500 2wd. The tire I used is a 275/70r18 bfg all terrain that is 33.2" tall.

Finally! I’ve tired 2 different level kits and nothing works. I 100% believe this is the method for my truck! Thank you again!
Finally an informative video from someone who is an average Joe and NOT a smartass. Very nice video. Thank you, just what I needed.
Oh man you had me at 9:30. I could not understand for the life of me why you were putting the same spindle right back on to the hub.
Genius idea of hitting the spindle from the top! Killing 2 birds with 1 stone! I never would’ve thought of that in a million years! Appreciate the video!
Good job buddy, You make look so easy, I did mine and it took me all day long. But I got it done. Good video
I agree. Very composed and cool. I drop F bombs every few minutes when I gotta wrench on my truck.
Good video. You was swinging that hammer like that truck did something to you. 😂
I put lift spindles and 2 inch coils on my 2002 2wd silverado. I bought aftermarket uppers, and the ball joint, and the nut and almost flush together.
Best video for spindles. Thank you it helped me every step of the way!
Your video was very helpful on the installation on my 2wd 02 Silverado. The only thing I found that you don't mention is you need to reroute the brake lines and the abs wires from the wheels. But other than that , thank you for your video it does help.
What do you need to do to reroute the brake lines?
On the 02 ones you have to zip tie the abs wire creatively and you have to use a longer steel braided brake line that you also have to route and zip tie. The stock brake line will not work with this lift. I tried it. ❤
I’m having trouble putting back on the brake caliper mounting bracket back on. The top bolt goes in no problem. The bottom on doesn’t reach; I’m afraid I got the wrong spindles
"preciate the video! Very informative. I'm doing my sierra this weekend. I can't wait to see how it comes out.
Glad you did this. I’m doing it this weekend! Wish me luck
You're great at explaining stuff. Thank you
It looked so perfect to me the way you had it but that’s just my opinion great content!
Will the 3”inch spindle level the truck ? Or did you have mods done the the rear suspension?
Thanks for the video. I have a 04 Chevy Tahoe 2w drive. I will be ordering the spindles soon.
Best video on this by far. Thank you!!
Thanks I watched this and me and my dad was able to do in a couple of hours
Good deal bud!
@@Fentertainment I need alignment after that?
@@joseolguin4269 technically no, however when i change the suspension i usually do.
@@Fentertainment ruclips.net/video/GaDX35eu-w4/видео.html. .... I want to do this but i'm not sure if i need to do an alignment.. Or do what you did
Hey man , quick question , did you had to do anything to the brake lines and wheel speed sensor?
Best video hands down. Thank you man
Great video bud thanks, hey but are different shocks necessary?
This video made me feel so dumb. My pops and I have no idea about spindle lifts and it’s been kicking our ass for three going on four days. I’m going to follow these steps and get my truck back on the road
Is this relatively easy to install for someone with little to no mechanic knowledge or should I get someone to do it?
It’s relatively easy if things go correctly.
Great video, I have a question. I added a 3” lifting block on top of the spring. Yet when I go to add the shock, it will hit the spring for it being somewhat bent idk if from the compression or what. But the shocks will not enter smoothly. Any help?
I had ordered 99 thru 06 spindles I’m wondering if they will fit on my 08 Sierra im stressing now I gotta return it and get the right ones but they look identical
almost bought rough country spindles never thought to look on amazon
Both of my spindles got stuck on the lower ball joint wouldn’t let me take it off so I had to take the rivets out of the lower ball joint and replace it just to get the spindle off
Nice truck! I have a 2500hd that I was able to squeeze some 35s on. My 1500 took a body lift to fit 35s.
I put spindles on my 2000 gmc 2wd and I’m measuring at 37 inches also but on 265s
Does it need a front end alignment after or is it within tolerance?
Good video man you make shit look super easy.
Man thank you so much for taking the time and making this video. I have an 08 Silverado and I'm getting ready to install my 3" lift spindles but I've never done it before. Even though mines an 08, this is still very helpful. One concern I have is that I've seen people comment on the "final track width", some say 1/2", some say 1". Is it really that much of a difference? I was planning on buying 1.5" spacers for the front and 2" for the rear, that way it evens out.
Did you ever find an answer to your track width question?
@@jeremyhuff5047 no, not really. I ended up buying 2" spacers for just the rear, and it looked good all around.
Thank you!
@@jeremyhuff5047 you're welcome
Awesome work on a good looking truck.. 💪👏
Awesome, I just installed some 3” spindles on my truck with 3” coil spring spacers as well
Did it lift it pretty good?
@@jacksondoler3370 yea i have a video on my channel
Question I have a 05 1500 HD with a 6” lift I want to go Down to a 4 “ Lift but it seems like there is nothing out there because I have a 2wd .
Any recommendations?
Can I just change the spindle?
I do apologize for my ignorance..
Nice video,Bub. Explained it very well! I got an 02 but it is about the same I'm guessing. Because you're lifting via spindles and not coil, you don't need longer shocks, right?
Correct. The spindle doesnt change the suspension any, it just replaces the hub lower on lift spindles or higher on lowering spindles.
Hi just want to comment on the video for the 3 inch left leveling kit. You did not say anything about brake lines and abs lines being to short and you half to get a front end alignment after install. Just want to let installers know this thanks
So I already have 2 inch coil spring spacers in the front, which level the truck. If I do a 3” spindle, will I have to raise the back?
yes, if you want it to sit level
@@Fentertainment thank you for your quick response and your video 👍
Do you have to put spacers on the back to get an alignment?
Does it level the truck r still alittle higher in front
You measured 33 in before and 37 after so you got 4 inches of lift with 3 inch lift spindles?
Very good video, great job!
@fertertainment i saw in another video that you lowered the back before raising the front. Did you leave the back lowered or did you end up raising it for this video again?
I installed 2" shackles first but replaced them with stock ones before I leveled the front.
Can you change the color the black on the bottom thank you I need new lights new one the front and the back needs new wings I’ll fix it the closer the wheels true mufflers the sound the truck other teams have no repeat
Can you go In to detail in another video of how you did you abs line because I did I I keep going though abs bc it is pulling it or cutting the line with the tire
Trucks look good. I have this kit on the way for my 2004 1500. In your video I can see the front tire is extended out vs. the rear tire. If someone wanted to square up the stance do you know how big of a spacer would be needed? for the rear 1”? I have a set of the factory chevy rims you took off your extended cab with 33” BFG Ko2. I’ve been doing tons of research and I hope everything fits….😱 what do you think?
How much wider does it track in the front with new spindles? Ive got a set on the way.
Thanks for this video helps me a lot!!!
What are the specs on the wheels you put on that truck? I have stock 17s, but the link to the spindles you posted say no more than 4.6" backspacing and I think the stocks are 5"ish. Just curious because the wheels you have look like stock GM.
Will this lift work on 16s? My 2000 has stock 16s and I’m trying to see if it’s possible to run this lift temporarily until I get a wheel upgrade
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Did you need an allignment after installing these? Also have there been any issues with running these for extended period of time?
Technically it doesn't need an alignment but I still get them. Not at all, Still on the truck.
Nice, I have a 2000 GMC Sierra without a double and in front of him, will he ride to him and lift the front of the car?
Nice video . So the spindles themselves are what lift the truck ? Nothing else needed?
Do you know if they make any pucks or blocks to lift the rear as well? I'd like to go 1-2" on the rear and then level the front from there, Thanks!
you could buy some blocks for the rear
Would this spindle kit work on a 4wd I’m curious because this would be a lot simpler than lift keys
Dam good shiet man, you get down explaining the steps
Do you need to extend the brake lines ?
Good evening Ryan, great video! Very helpful. I have a question... I have a 07 Silverado Classic 4dr 4.8 and need to replace the front shocks but want to fix that front lean that is bad. Any recommendations you can help me with?
Your year should have a strut instead of a seperate coil spring and shock. They make spacers that bolt between the strut and frame & strut and lower xontrol arm.
Fentertainment Got it, I will look it up. I appreciate your help Ryan! Keep it up 👍🏼
@@chrissm757 thank you man!
Just a heads up..if the shocks don't fix the lean which mines was able to do after new shocks (which yours has as well if yours is the classic)..they sell new springs that fix that slight difference in the lean. Believe by Moog..
How did you take out that 18 mm socket I can’t take mine out it’s to hard
Would this be necessary if I wanted to run 275/70/17s on my 05 Silverado 2wd?
Nice video although the top part of the lift spindle isn’t to lift it it’s to keep the upper control arm from maxing out the lift comes from how low the hub hole is on the new spindle other than that great video 👍💪
Barely watching this.
question did u add lift block on the end?
Great video keep them coming 👍
Do you know if you need lift control arms ? No issues with balljoints ?
Question , did you upgrade the shocks ?trying to decide on billstein 4600 or the 5100's
I did not because the spindle did not extend the suspension or raise the suspension at all. It just lowers the hub mounting point causing the truck to raise. I left the stock shocks in place, rides like factory still.
Does the front stick out noticeably than the rear after the spindles?
No ouedo encontrar para mi suburban 07 2wd ,busco para 3" inch ,help
I could be wrong but doesnt the 07 suburban have coilovers? If so then you might be able to just get spacers for the coilovers and that would be alot simpler.
Nice looking trucks
Ok so I was changing mines and my brakes wouldn’t fit what I did wrong?
Sure looks sharp
No more now dive.
I bought 1 " coil spring spacer..
Does the truck sit leveled or is the front a little higher than the rear?
Great video do you have to extend the brake lines I was going to do my tahoe the same way
So what did you about the brake lines? I'm currently finishing mine but I can't just bolt up the brake line brackets like before. I'm thinking just zip timing them. But I hate the idea
Either zip tie them or buy longer brake cables..
I got my stock brake lines to work with the original hold downs. Same with sensor wires. Read the directions and test what you are doing. But yeah, adding steal braided brake lines all the way around is the Best option!
Thanks, gonna help me alot
I have the same truck pretty much. I have a 3 inch leveling kit already, and just ordered a 4” spindle lift. Is it gonna change the suspension a whole lot?
Garrett Kennedy yeah its gonna change it quite a bit but go ahead anyway buck you got none to loose
Spindle shouldn't change much
Well I put em on and I’m looking in tha mf clouds son😂😂 changed em a hole lot
@@garrettkennedy1068 oh i thought you meant the angles of the a arms or sum
Is this the same method you used for the single cab? Also is does this level the truck out, getting rid of the stock rake?
Looking to do this soon to my 03’ Sierra
Yes, It may sit a tad higher in the front but not really noticeable.
If You NorCal modded that truck with the 3 in lift spindle would you be able to run 35s with no offset ??
thats what l plan on doing
Do you have the link to the grille? And headlights?
Amazing job.
How to raise the front height of a 2008 Chevy Uplander without changing tires or wheels safely.
I know this is a few years old but are you still running the drop shackles like you installed in one of your previous videos or does it have factory shackles?
This truck is running the stock shackles with lift spindles currently still.
Ok thanks so much. I have a 2wd 06 im rebuildin this helped me so much sir!
Does it just have stock shackles or are you running blocks too?
I'm replacing my stock knuckles with 3" knuckles. Will I need to install longer shocks or spacers?
Neither, this doesn't change your suspension. It lowers the wheel hub. Everything stock will continue to work as it ahould.
Would you have to do any cutting with a 305/40r22?
How many times do you gotta say boyle joint? Damn
Do these spindles work on the 8 lug pattern if it’s a 2wd?
If you get the 8 lug one probably
This is cool boss straight up💯
With that spindle you installed, we’re you able to get an alignment with no problem? Because with my lift spindle I topped out on my tie rods and couldn’t get an alignment.
Yes an alignment wasn't an issue.
@@Fentertainment I bought the spindle from Amazon, the brand lostar and I don’t know why but I can’t get an alignment, but people say they don’t have a problem with tie rods with the brand rough country lift spindles
@@Fentertainment you think we can talk on the phone because I bought the rough country ones and I still have the same problem? When you installed them, did you have the oem tie rods?
Great video man
Does the wheel stickout alot is it noticeable?
What size was that alley key you use for the ball joint
So it's been a year plus some. How's it riding? Any more updates? Ball joints? control arms? i'm fixing to do this to my 06 crew cab.
Still going strong. I havent had to do anything to the front suspension other than a abs sensor.
@@Fentertainment OEM parts?
Great video how much different do you think this job would be on a 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2WD thx
you can use spacers for that year truck. easier and cheaper
@@Fentertainment thx for the reply I have a2.5 in spacer on there now just bought the 5” spindles and new rims with the 4.5 “ backspacing I’m hoping it will all work together and give me 7.5 “ lift up front I have 3” blocks on now going to change to 5 “ blocks in rear and if need be a 1” shackle your really good at explaining things great video keep up the good work really helpful
Hit the torsion bars if you're doing this to a 2wd Yukon or tahoe and you'll get almost 6 inches of lift
Great video, I plan on swapping out my spindles on my suburban soon.
Do you have any recommendations for lifting the rear?
Blocks
I just changed mine on a 3" spindles but the bottom of my tires look way to the inner side and seems to not be aligned.
Any reason why?
Thanks.
one side or both sides? Lower ball joint issues? Thats weird, so both of your front tires look like this \ / ?
@@Fentertainment I have same probyand couldn't get it to alignment since they said ball joints had no room for adjustment or something like that.
Should I use extended control arms?
@@Fentertainment both sides
Yes both sides.
When I do reverse tires would look like this / \ and the opposite when I go forward.
And rides very rough and squaks
Also forgot to mention I switched to 285/55/20 wheels not sure if that's why, any thoughts?
Hi, I'm a little frustrated last Tuesday, I ordered some spindles for my 2001 Silverado 2wd "stock wheels 16". I'm looking at the reviews and it seems that you should use wheels 17 or bigger. Any recommendations please
Might have to just go back to stock or get bigger wheels..have u rode with the 16s yet? I have stock 16s and I wanted to know if it’s possible to run the lift with these wheels? Or how bad does it look?
Yes you can run the spindle with 16 in wheels but you'll need a 2in spacer
Old videos but what tire size was on the single cab ?
@@juandiaz8382 275-70-18 33”
@@Fentertainment they looked great! I’m in the process of raising my truck from being lowered and that single cab looked great with the level spindles and tire size.
Thank you for the reply and the info.
I need these!!!!
Looks good about to install mine Do it have rear blocks mine doesn’t ????
No rear blocks.
Should I run 3inch or 2inch longer shocks ?
