Newb question about front air....
I have ART Strong arms and am looking into the proterbuilt front member. I really dont want to take out my inner fenders and was curious if it would be possible to run a stock spindle on the drop member. If so would I be able to run 20's without having to take out my inner fenders?

Re: Newb question about front air....
I was just thinking that running a stock spindle will negate the 3 inches that the suspension will be moved up. Which would allow me to not have to take the inner fender out on like a 27ish tall tire.

I like the DM because you have the option of using it w/spindles to get the frame on the ground or w/o spindles (mild to moderate drop) & getting extra ground clearance for the same drop. When you drive it daily @ a moderate drop (5/7) using just spindles & springs, you'll tear up your lower a-arms w/the many road imperfections in existence from coast to coast. Substitute the DM for the spindles & you achieve the same drop w/some extra ground clearance. Less damage in the long run....
