drop spindles

BEWARE of the change in track width. If your using aftermarket brakes with big ball joint A arms your track width will increase by around 3/4" on each side. This makes the wheels sit out towards the lips and causes all kinds of issues with finding the correct back spacing for wheels.

If you go that route better do some measuring before you order anything and be prepared to find that many manufacturers will not be able to supply what you need.

Steel rims may be different but alloys will be a beech.

Notice 72nblus wheels and how far they stick out on the sides. He cannot lower his car any more or the tire will rub. I am using his set up as an example so you see how close they can come to the lip. No dis to 72's set up.

Go see my nightmare.

Post #254 shows the car before I had custom hubs made. The wheels are 17x7 with 4.5" bs. That was the most back space I could find in an aluminum wheel both custom and off the shelf. That's why I had to do the hub. Unless I wanted tuner style wheels which I did not. The tuner styles have more aggressive back space typical of what would be needed on a fwd car.

Notice starting at post #263 what transpires and pics of the finished and working model.

Measure twice and spend $ once.

Good luck.
