rotors?spindles
Hey looking for some help I have a 62C10 that I swapped front c-member from a 78. I bought a set of dropped spindles for the 78 clip from a forum member, does somebody make 6 lug rotors for these spindles? Also theres no name on the spindles. I have aftermarket 6 lug smoothies so I dont want to go 5 lug

Re: rotors?spindles
Check w/some of the board vendors for the 6-lug 'swap' rotors (more than one has them).

Re: rotors?spindles
I bet your drop spindles are for the Light Duty 1" wide rotors.
All aftermarket 6-lug rotors are the 1-1/4" wide version. Posted via Mobile Device

ECE or Performance On Line sells the 6-lug rotors.

Re: rotors?spindles
Ride quality. The bag needs a certain height/pressure to achieve good (proper) ride quality. If you want the ride height @ a certain level, it may or may-not be optimum. Dropped spindles are a quick/easy way for making that adjustment w/o detrimental impact.
