Re: Drop Spindles
I got my entire suspension and brake setup from GMCpauls, good price for buying the entire package. The spindles are from McGaughy's ... the brake parts are all cheaper brands from Autozone. Not sure on the springs.

Re: Drop Spindles
Ive already got 2" drop coils in the front and 3" in the back. Im thinking of going with a 5" or 6" coil in the rear and drop spindles up front. Is there any other issues when lowering that much with just shocks and coils?

Re: Drop Spindles
all the above are good, i happen to choose mcguaghy's (?) they were priced a little higher, but was told & is true that they are a bolt swap item. i just replaced my stockers with these & had to do no mods. i would not recommend cutting of springs (just my 0.02)
good luck!!! rodstored-72 |

Re: Drop Spindles
I've put on countless sets of Early Classic spindles. They are a true bolt on, and best customer service in the business. Just give them a call on their free phone number and talk to them, and you'll agree.
I just ordered another pair of spindles from the last Friday. They are $219 a pair.

Re: Drop Spindles
When lowering the rear 4" with coil springs, do you need an Adjustable Track Bar?
