Is it posible you swapped sides with the calipers?

I'm going to try to bend it and see if it works. I help it works, i need to drive this to work tomorrow. Thanks guys.

Tweak the steel part of the brake line. I have to do that every time. I don't know why the manufacturer of the spindle doesn't put that in their instructions.

Glad it worked out.

Do y'all think I'll be alright driving with one stock spindle and one drop spindle for a few days?

Aside from lookin goofy and riding wierd, it may track a lil off, but it shouldn't hurt any pieces.

i just have to add a little more air pressure to one side so it could look even because when i lift it one side looks lower but yea i test drove it around the block and it was alright.

Don't forget to get it aligned when you are done.
