CPP Drop Spindles - Distance Between Ball Joints

Hello all,

Hoping for a little help/confirmation...

Just getting ready to install my 2 1/2" drop spindles, 3" lowering springs and disc brakes from CPP. I just noticed that the distance between ball joints on the new drop spindles is approximately 9", where as on my old drum spindles, it is approximately 8" (see aaacted picture). Will this be an issue? Did I get the right spindles?

Combine this potential issue with my new lowering springs which are shorter than my old springs (even with a clamp on them). Will these fit between my control arms tight enough with the larger spacing from my spindles?

For those who have lowered their trucks, does this look right? Before I start installing these, I just wanted to get some feedback from you guys.

Thanks in advance.
Mike
