drop spindles dont look dropped!!
im doing the 73-87 swap on my truck and just got in my 3 inch drop spindles but they sure dont look like it. i dont have a stock one to compare to either. the shaft is almost dead center, is this correct for a 3 inch spindle? thanks guys

Re: drop spindles dont look dropped!!
If the spindle pin is in the center they are drop spindles. However I think that they are 2 1/2" WES
