2.5 inch drop spindles - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

CG · 02-03-2009, 06:47 PM

Im leaning a different direction trying to get my front suspension figured out. If I can sell these spindles it will help make up my mind.

Brand new, never installed. CPP 2.5 inch drop spindles part number CP4S2. They were going to go on my 69. They list for $239.00, Im selling for $220.00. Now that doesn't seem like that big of a savings...BUT...Ill ship em in the Continental USA for FREE!

Check on shipping costs these days...that is a huge savings.

Mark

PS...No pictures, these are packed away in my storage unit and Im not going to take em out to post a picture of something you can see on the CPP website. Let me toss a smiley on here in case that sounded harsh

Good deal for someone considering these...

Here's a picture of them for you because it helps posts get more views

sick69 · 02-03-2009, 07:02 PM

Do these use the factory 69 ball joints and tie rods? Or do you have to use the 71+ parts? Do they use the 1 1/4" rotor or the 1" ?

put me in line!

Twisted78SS · 02-03-2009, 07:08 PM

Hey CG,

I think these will fit on the 70 Blazer I just got from Livrat, if so I will be up working on it in the next week or so..

(I just don't know for sure what year front crossmember he used for the conversion to 2wd). I'll call him and see, if so Maybe we could strike a deal and you wouldn't have to ship them at all...

CG · 02-03-2009, 07:08 PM

Hey thanks for tossing that picture up. Im pretty sure they use the 69 stuff because the part number is different for the 71

Twisted78SS · 02-03-2009, 07:14 PM

CPP' site lists it like this..

CP4S2 1963-70, 2-1/2" drop, set

CP4S3 1971-72, 2-1/2" drop, set

sick69 · 02-03-2009, 07:48 PM

Let Vasquez or Twisted have them,,,,I would love to snatch them up but it's gonna be a week or so before I have the money. Killer deal though!

Frank

jholley · 02-03-2009, 08:11 PM

That's a great deal, and you are sure to get them faster than if you were to order them from CPP!

FOREVER71 · 02-03-2009, 09:07 PM

mark are they really a cpp spindle or the westerns they give you and you only find out after they arive...the westerns are a great spindle but i dont want someone saying that you swaped spindles on them after they purchase. that photo might mislead someone when in fact it is cpp that misleads.i dont believe that cpp actually makes a spindle....jeremy

**leddzepp** · 02-03-2009, 09:13 PM

I got my spindles from CPP. They were manufactured by Western suspension (which I suspect manufactures most of them. They are USA made, and I am very happy with them)

looks like im in the same boat, it will be a few days till i get my money. so i will need to say pass and bump for a good deal.

Twisted78SS · 02-03-2009, 10:25 PM

Well of course all the good deals pass me by.. Just Kidding, but I just spoke to Mark and he used a 72 disc brake setup. So it looks like I am out of the running as well.

This is a great deal for someone out there!

Drew

OK, can I say Rats! Rats! Rats! ONE MORE TIME...

Mark

clos69 · 02-04-2009, 01:59 PM

Sounds good,thanks

CG · 02-06-2009, 10:13 PM

Im going to be gone all day Saturday doing some parts moving and picking up from cheyenne10 in Eugene (close to a 5 hour drive) and on the way back up stopping at Frizzle Frys place dropping off some stuff (checking out his mini burb too) and if things work out, hopefully stopping at Brads place.

So anyway I wont be able to grab the spindles and shoot you some pics until Sunday.

clos69 · 02-07-2009, 01:55 PM

No problem Mark only if you promise to take pics of Frizzle 69 Tahoe.

thanks

CG · 02-08-2009, 08:20 PM

Ok, here are a couple of pics. They were in CPP boxes but they dont have their logo on them. Let me know if you want them and we can work out payment...I have a ton of suspension stuff all mixed together...Does anyone know if you get other parts when you order your dropped spindles...or is it just spindles?

(waiting for the wise acre responses lol)

clos69 · 02-09-2009, 02:17 PM

Mark..I called CPP and they said all you get are the spindles whan you purchase them.....so let me know if you want PP or a postal MO,thanks Carlos
