Spindles or Springs?
I want to lower the front of my 70 C-10 about 2". Will I have to clearance my lower control arm using drop spindles? I am running 15" truck rallies. Thanks for your help.

That being said, what width ralleys? I've used the skinny van ralleys w/3" spindles & trimmed the lip of the lower a-arms w/o issue. 2.5" spindles will offer more clearance but might possibly require a little trim.

2.5" drop spindles is what i was looking at. The wheels are 15x8.

Re: Spindles or Springs?
if you are only going 2" I would cut your springs or buy 2" dropped springs.
