it does use a front steer R&P. I spoke with Smith and the ridetechs will work, and just trying to see what all my options are in terms of drop spindles.. the sub looks just like this

Looks like they use a stock F-Body spindle and use a custom steering arm for the R&P. Our spindle will be fine as it's a direct replacement for the stock unit.

I spoke with SRC just to triple check and they said as long as the spindles work with OEM arms they will work on thier stuff. That was only half the battle as i also wanted to make sure they will work with the brakes, which everyone so far says they do.....so hopefully they will
