Do I really need to get the drop spindles too or by using only a 3 inch drop spring completely mess up my suspension geometry, as in excessive negative camber?
Just depends on what you want for your final stance. My C20 has a 5.5 in. drop in front and approx. a 7 in. in back. Any amount of spring height change in front will lead to some alignment, caster, and camber change. If you were to just do 2.5 drop spindles and not change the spring and also lowered the rear 2.5 in. chances are no alignment changes would be needed. Without getting into a long write up about Alignment, Caster, and Camber, I think your best bet would be to find a competent shop that can do an alignment on these older types of suspension. Then do the stance you want and have it aligned. Your sway bar brackets are taller than mine, as mine are the lowered ones for the extra clearance. This is my C20 at stock height.
