My vote is the spindles, you'll get less camber and have less to notch for the tierods.

I just pulled my front end back apart to start moving shit on the firewall, so hopefully i'm right!

you can just notch your arms for the cheapest way, or just do the djm arms to ensure the camber to tuck

so its possible to use the stock ones just trim them down until it lays out? and if i buy the control arms will it just lay out?or is there any other modifications?

LOTS of other mods. You either need to notch the stock arms, buy 2" drop arms, or 2" drop spindles. Notch for the tie rods, move the wiring harnesses on both sides of the firewall, cut out a lot of inner structure above the wheels, and I've heard you need to tub the firewall too, but I'm close to laying and I'm not thinking that's needed for sure yet...

If all goes well I should know for sure tomorrow...

my ford in my profile layed full frame on 22s with the spindle flip.u dont have to tub the firewall but mine had no inner fenders and the entire wiring harness had to be stretched to clear the tires

ok well i'm doing this right now and i'm running the belltech drop spindles and djm lower control arms and i have to tub the fire wall to clear tires and move the wiring harness on both sides and relocate the fuse box. the battery is in my bed and the washer fluid is gone.

I USED THE DJM'S ON MINE. NO PROB ON 20'S BUT WITH 22'S I WOULD USE DJM'S AND SPINDLES. THAT WOULD BE YOUR EASIEST I THINK. GOOD LUCK

wuts the best offset 4 22's on a 97 f 150 to be able to tuck? and clear my fenders?
