Anyone running McGaughys drop spindles?
Looking at a pair, 2.5" drop. Was wondering if anyone here has a set on their truck, and if they had any clearance issues with 15" wheels? Thanks!

Re: Anyone running McGaughys drop spindles?
bought a pair for my blazer, they didnt clear well at all. I ended up taking a pretty good amount off the lca's. I called them and they said they never heard of anyone having to grind to get them to fit?

No big deal really, only took about 20 mins or so. Could have been worse

Re: Anyone running McGaughys drop spindles?
I was trying to get away from having to do that. I did it on Yeller with my 3" Bell Tech spindles, I thought 2.5" spindles eliminated that problem.
Have any pics of your trimmed LCA's?

I can get some, my blazer is at a friends house while he tunes the carb after putting in the big block.

Had them on the 80 chevy I recently got rid of. I had to cut the LCAs, but it wasnt much. Only rubbed a small amount at full lock left or right.
