8-Lug drop spindles & springs - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I bought my 8-LUG DISC BRAKES, 2" Drop spindles, 1" frt. drop springs, 5" rear springs, 4 new shocks, panhard bar, tie-rod ends, Booster & MC. from

www.performanceonline.com

Really pleased with the heavy duty aspect of all the new components.
One of the best parts of the swap is all the knowledgeable folks at Performance Online - phone in help/ order desk.

Here are a couple of pics,,,
.....this way I can still use my existing wheels,....

Before i go to site did they sell a 2wd drive 6 lug front setup? Id like to use my jimmy rims but cant find the 6 lug front. I already have the 6 lug rear but i moght look for another its off a jimmy and i think its more narrow.

Also awsome looking setup going to make that truck pop and shine like new.
