Where to purchase spindle for rear tire carrier build???

[Zane]

I'm starting to pull together all the needed hardware to begin my rear tire carrier build and am having issue finding a quality spindle and hub kit.

Slee offroad is no longer selling the spindle kit that they used too and I had used them several times before and loved the kit. Anyone have any suggestions on where to find a high quality 1.75" spindle kit for building a rear tire carrier?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Zane

Hi Zane, haven't built the tire carrier yet, went with the sliders first.
Did you try 4x4labs? Not sure if they have the diameter you are looking for.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction guys! I think I am going to go with the 4x4 Labs spindle set up. I believe it will handle the greatest load range and is similar to the quality of Slee's old set up that I have used in the past. $99 is quite high I know, but I often believe you get what you pay for and sometimes its not safe to skimp on things that may be the weakest link in your design. Sure would hate to have a 35" tire plus the tire carrier fall off the back of my rig down the highway...

spindle assemblies

These are what I use, and guarantee you won't find a stouter unit! They will easily hold up to a 40" tire if built right throughout.

Is this 4x4 Labs set up or someone else's?
