As for spindles, if you do not want a tall spindle that has drop ion it, you are going to be forced into stock spindles and a G mod. or stock spindles and a tall upper ball joint

As for subframes that use stock spindles, look at Speedtech. This is what we run in Project EmptyNest and we are very happy with it.

Frank:

Thanks for your input.

I have read on a number of links that the dropped spindles are definitely NOT the way to go if you want to keep the steering geometry in tact.

I'm guessing that information is still valid.

While I'm trying to find the most desirable way to go with this, would you mind sending me a quote regarding the:

Wilwood Radial Mount Big Brake Kit
The Tall Ball Joints and spindles

The Speed Tech Front Clip
===========================
Why would people not always use a radial mount Braking system, since they could then have more wheel choices?
===========================

Thanks,

Ty
