You could prob get the spindle part # from rize or any kit that has 8" spindles and ask for them. Cuz say you snap a spindle or break a leaf, are they going to say sorry you have to buy a whole kit again. I don't think so. Just ask for the price of the spindles

You are not going to be able to find a spindle that big. I would suggest getting those spacers out of there and getting a body lift. You would get more lift out of it, and your balljoints wont have any issue either.

Because I dont think the Rize kit has an 8" spindle. Im pretty sure it uses more than just the spindle to lift the truck. By all means try to find you one, but I dont think you are going to find what you are looking for.

But you gotta think rize makes a 12 inch also so those spindles have to be massive

i called rize and they said that they couldnt sell the spindles seperately that i would have to purchase the entire front end kit $2800 i had asked them what would happed if someone had snapped a spindle would they have to repurchase the kit he said no they would have to send in the broke one for inspection then they would replace it.
