I think im going to keep the stock spindles. I messed up on the front end. Should have just bought the santuff struts. It would have made everything easier and lighter.

can you run them in your class? you talkin' the non upper arm style?


ya raccraft said they think that could make a set like that. Just put the shock brackets off their 1inch narrow, 2 part clevisd style like yours. On the normal fixed A arm, but never mocked it up to see about it and extra work and price.
