Do drop spindles change the position of the tie rod ends?

Just wondering if the spindle raised or lowered or didnt do anything to the position of the tie rods.

Mine is by McGaughey's and the tie rod position is the same.It should stay the same with all but that may vary by manufacturer,though I can't see why it would.

On mine (from Stylin Trucks) the position of the tie rod didn't really change, but they attached from the top instead of the bottom (as is stock).
