What spindles did you use with the mild dropmember? In the beginning you said you had 3.5 is that what you used or stock?

Looks awesome. I'll follow along.

gofast68c20 · 01-20-2013, 04:40 PM

I used airbagit.com's 3.5 drop spindles. They are a true 3.5 drop compared to the original '68 drum spindles but only about 2.5 drop compared to a '72 disc spindle. Here's a progress pic.

Sweet!

RWB-713 · 01-21-2013, 02:38 PM

Nice! Love the work on the frame & the p/c!. I've always had thought I was going black with mine, but lately going some shade of gray/silver is becoming more & more appealing. Sigh... decisions...

gofast68c20 · 01-21-2013, 02:42 PM

Thanks everyone. I'm really pleased with my color choices. Here is a close up of the frame color.

I love the new frame work!

Did you have any problems with the EXO mount on the side of the frame under the bed before? I am thinking about putting mine in the same place... Lots of room under there?
