Drop Spindles.
What is your experience buying/using dropped spindles? Is one brand different from another? Problems?
Planning on dropped spindle in front, using stock springs. Thanx, Bob |

Early Classic Enterprises. They cost more because they are worth it.

Re: Drop Spindles.
I failed to say I have an '81 C10 short wide.
Early Classic Enterprises doesn't seem to have anything for 81s that I can find. Thanks Bob |

Re: Drop Spindles.
Make sure you measure your rotor width.
There are two different spindles for the 73-87 trucks. 1" light duty or 1.25" hd rotors. Theres a specific spindle for each.

Re: Drop Spindles.
Just finish d installing western chassis 2.5 spindles and 2" coils from them. Got a ful 4.5" drop. Spindles were nice but had to finish taping holes for brake cover, or use shorter bolts.
