I don't know of anyone making a 2" spindle spec'd for an 8-lug application. Of the one's I do know about for the heavy trucks, they yield 3" of drop so you wouldn't need new shocks (spindles don't change shock travel).

The rear will require shackles & front hangers for 4" drop.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
