I'm not 100% about this but, I think you will use the stock height ATS spindles if you use the DSE 2 or 3 set up.

You will need to use stock height spindles as, DSE relocation of upper control arm mount changes front roll center.

Hey Lutzy,
This is why I was looking ino the Global West P/N GWK-67693 kit. It is less expensive than the DSE Stage 1 kit and comes with QA1 Bolt in Coil-Overs.

I really wanted to go with DSE due to their reputation but didn't think the Lower Control Arms matched up with the QA1's (?).

[QUOTE=slenning;330337]I have a Speed Kit 3 in my 69. Wasn't too bad to install, just take your time cutting. It rides and handles real well. But I am seriously thinking of replacing mine with a full DSE subframe real soon. I track mine and would really like to get bigger rubber on the front. A 245 tire is about all you can do on the stock subframe.

Carl Casinova runs a 275 front tire with a stock subframe his site is below
