It is not a raised spindle it is a drop because you are droping the stub on the spindle which gives you more lift !
But I would modify your gas pedal first from what your buddy's told me ! You ride with me I'm calling ya driving miss daisy or lazy lol 8)

Go king pin, custom long arm, dropped spud. That is the perfect setup....I can fab it up for you if you would like (small fee)

Before you decide to run the drop spindles consider 4" longer trailing arms. The drop spindles are really hard on the King and Link pin bushings and/or bearings, been there done that!

I was thinking of doing 2x3 trailing arms with some air bags and then lifting the front some how

Ok lets clear some things up here. We were talking about front supension correct?
I am assumming the 2 x 3 arms and air bags are for the rear supension correct?
For the front I am talking about using 4" longer arms in lieu of the drop spindles.

Unless your getting them custom made there is only ONE size, that is a 3" drop.
I would suggest, before asking more questions, do a but load of reading. All of the information you are seeking is here, all you need to do is LOOK for it.

If you use a king pin front end and want 4 lug spindles you can machine off the king pin spindles smooth,,,then take a set of ball joint spindle and machine them smooth while leaving some material. Go ahead and drop them an inch or so, maybe 2 inches,,, this will gain height,,stronger spindles,,easier disc conversion,,,a tiny bit of width,,,but also some compramise in handling,,,gain a little ,,lose a little. Oh and go ahead and get longer arms too,,,,,, good luck

knew I must have missed this;
