Re: western chassis sport truck direct

You should be able to find someplace with free shipping. Here is one example:

1975 - 1991 PICKUP BELLTECH DROP SPINDLE SET 3" DROP SPINDLE 75-91 C-30 CREW CAB/DUALLY BEL3500 3500 $355.49 FREE SHIPPING


Here is a link:http://www.stillen.com/product.asp?id=BTSPINDLES&c=SU

Looks like about the same price as Sporttruckdirect with shipping... but you get the idea.

That is sometimes how it works out. They have cheap prices, but make up for it on the shipping and "handling".

Re: western chassis sport truck direct

Western Chassis is great, Sport Truck Direct, not so much.

Re: western chassis sport truck direct

I ordered the WC 4/6 kit and 4 Doetsch shocks from Sport Truck Direct early last week. Good price but as stated the shipping killed it. I received the 4 shocks Wednesday. Still no sign of the drop kit. I'm gonna give them a call tomarrow to see whats up. Hopefully no bad surprises like a lost package.....

Re: western chassis sport truck direct

Those of you who ordered flip lits from STD, check your u-bolt sizes...both kits I ordered (several months apart) came with the incorrect size. Not STD's fault, but Western Chassis...and try getting ahold of them...lol. STD won't do anything about it either.

Re: western chassis sport truck direct

Also, those Doetsch shocks are HORRIBLE and make your truck ride like a covered wagon...despite STD praising them up and down.

Awesome..... guess they'll have to do for now. Hopefully they ride better than my blown out KYB's.

Re: western chassis sport truck direct

I just called up STD. My 4/6 isn't shipping till the 26th and the spindles won't be shipped until who knows when since they actually ran out of them. They told me they are making a new casting or something? I got other stuff to do on the truck anyways but it does delay plans a tad.
