Great service, great product. iirc they gave me a bit of a break because I bought SOOO much stuff at once. Had 1 miss-picked item delievered to me. Just called them up and they had the correct part to me next day.

Re: Who is the best for dropped springs?

ECE gets my vote as well. Not the cheapest, but definitely the best!

I'd check out the Review board before buying from LMC.

Re: Who is the best for dropped springs?

I would check with the BB vendors.Most of them will beat LMC pricing.Many will be better than ECE and there may be one near you where you could pick them up or meet at a swap meet and save shipping(Spindles and springs is heavy and pricey to ship).I think GMC Pauls and Tim Christian both carry McGaughys.
