Best deal on front lowering spindles
So far the best i can find is at summit racing $229.00 and free shipping
Part cpp-cp-4s3 2.5 in lowering correct? But my question is cp4s3 the old style or new that moves in 3/4" to allow for wider tires? i want to keep my 255/60/15 on the front. I also want to stay 6 lug front disk and the best deal is $89.00 part #03-6370-6l at ECE or CPP. Any better deals out there? Last edited by 67stepper; 03-16-2014 at 07:13 PM. |

Re: Best deal on front lowering spindles
I don't think it's ever been proven how much the CPP Modular spindles move the wheels in.
Never could get an answer to this question when CPP had a Vendor on here. Plus,... moved in compared to what? 1) drum brakes? 2) stock disc brakes? (which we know are 3/4" wider than drum brakes) 3) other manufacturer's drop spindles? Just saying,... don't count on the 3/4" measurement you mentioned in your post.

Re: Best deal on front lowering spindles
If I'm not mistaken, the "newer" style CPP modular spindles are only 2" drop and also require a bracket not included with the spindle depending on which brake caliper you chose.

Re: Best deal on front lowering spindles
These are a new version that is supposed to be 2 1/2" drop. They don't look like the modular ones I've had that required a separate bracket...these look to fit factory calipers like the mcgaughy spindles I had... Says on the ad it

The ones I linked use 73-87 ball joints/tie rods which I usually recommend as they are easier to source and generally cheaper. |
