Re: To coil or to spindle, that is the question?

Before we jump in on spindles what wheels are you running? Don't buy drop springs. Those suckers bounce and the springs attenuate horribly and not even good shocks help. If you plan on going very low up front like a 6 inch drop find some used 3/4 ton springs at a wrecking yard and cut them otherwise cut half ton springs are a good idea as well for 5 inch drops.

Btw 2-4 drops don't look good IMO since the front always seams to look taller than the rear. I would suggest a 3in drop up front
