k3v11n, sorry about the super long delay in getting back with you on your question.
The spindles are holding up fine to date. They play well with the Icon coilovers and hold an alignment just fine. No weird wear on the tires or anything like that after 10k + miles. Over all I'm impressed with the quality for the money.
Not really sure why I went cheaper on the spindles since the rest of my suspension was by far more pricey but it worked out in the end.
Only thing I can ***** about is a bit of surface corrosion on them but that is to be expected here in Florida. Just need a day to tape off and hit them with a rattle can.
If anyone else is wondering, the Icons ride incredible (at the preset level Icon shipped at) and handle even better. By far the best riding lifted truck I've ever driven.
My wheel bearings gave up on me a few months back, which I thought was weird since my 2003 Tacoma with the original wheel bearings went 30-40k + miles with 35" tires on them (after having 75k miles in stock form). Anyways, I went with the Dorman Pre-Pressed Wheel Hub Assemblies P/N# 950-004. They seem quality and are holding up well in the 4-6 months I have on them. As I'm sure everyone else would be, I'm skeptical about longevity but for $100 a piece I'll be happy to eat through these once a year rather than having the Toyota parts fail in a similar amount of time.
Again, that is just my experience. The truck had about 85k miles on it before the lift went on, then about 7-8k before the bearings went with the larger tires (also smoked a set of brand new Brembo blank front brake rotors in that time). Seems to me like they should have lasted longer but what do I know. I'll ride these out until they die. Who knows they might be a winner in the long run?
