I know this is a stupid Question but i want to make sure before I buy spindles. If I lower my truck 2-1/2 inches with spindles do I have to, or would it be best to use the lowerd brackets for the sway bar? Im not sure if the lower brackets are for lowering springs or what.

The spindles wont affect the swaybar. They just move the hub location up.

the sway bar brackets you are talking about are for a lowered truck. They are just closer to the truck so they don't hit the ground. I don't know if you would have to have them with a 2 1/2 drop in the front though.
