drop lca steering issues

I have a 60 with the 80 crossmember installed and added drop LCA's and lowering springs. My question is have any of you had issues with steering clearance using a stock spindle with this setup? Should i go back to the stock LCA's and get drop spindles instead?

Not sure about your '60 setup but I didn't have any issues with my '83. I had drop LCAs and chopped springs.

Do you have everything installed?

Re: drop lca steering issues

i had it all mocked up to make sure i had enough clearance and it just doesn't seem correct. Thinking maybe i need the 80 pitman and idle arm. Because i think i still have the OG ones from my 60. If i could get a pic of someone else's setup maybe i could see what I am doing wrong.
