ARE U GOING TO KEEP THE TRUCK STATIC, OR ARE YOU GOING TO
BAG IT IN THE FUTURE? IF YOU ARE GOING TO BAG IN THE FUTURE
THERE ISN'T ANY SINCE BUYING ARMS FOR STATIC DROP, THEN HAVING
TO BUY SOME FOR BAGS, THEN AGAIN... YOU COULD JUST MODIFY THE ONES FOR THE STATIC WHEN YOU SWAP IT OVER. I HAVE THE DJM ARMS ON MY TRUCK RUNNING 16'S W/ NO CLEARANCE PROBLEMS. THE ONLY PLACE I KNOW TO STILL GET SPINDLES IS THROUGH AIM IND., THEY ARE LIKE $199 A SET, AND THEY SAY YOU CAN'T RUN A SET OF WHEEL WITH A GREATER OFFSET THAN FACTORY OR U RUN THE RISK OF BREAKING THEM. SINCE U ARE RUNNIN THE ESKIES, I DON'T THINK THAT WOULD BE A PROBLEM, IF YOU WERE RUNNING A +8" WIDE RIM WITH A LARGE OFFSET I WOULDN'T GET THEM.

JUST MY 1 1/2 CENTS...
