Re: Drop Spindle

A drop spindle raises the center of the disc brake rotor up either 2.5" or 3" (depending on which brand you use),... this is what brings the lower edge of the wheel "up",... closer to the lower balljoint/a-arm contact point. The different size drop springs shouldn't have any effect on this problem. Use the spindles and trim the lower a-arm. This is much better than using a dropped (tubular) lower a-arm.
