2" drop spindles...or not
 

Finally got the '53 on the road, Mustang II builder kit on the front end with 2" drop spindles....just a little too low for my taste. Will a change to stock height spindles raise it 2"...or more? The truck has about 700 miles on it so the springs should be relaxed.

I try to talk people out of dropped spindles for that reason. My mustII springs didn't settle out for a couple years and 2 long haul Hot Rod Power Tours. Dragging metal on driveway and gas station aprons isn't a good sound

By al rights and regulations it should.

Too low? That's like saying "my girlfriend is too pretty" :lol:

Re: 2" drop spindles...or not
 

I present for your consideration an example of too low

you can find your own examples of too pretty

If a little bit is good, and more is better, then too much must be just right.

Re: 2" drop spindles...or not
 

I used 2" drop spindles and I like the stance and ride, although, if you are running a big block might be a consideration to think about

Re: 2" drop spindles...or not
 

since we're talking trucks...

a lot of peoples here think their trucks are too pretty to drive :waah:

it's like not having sex with your pretty wife, saving her for the next guy :lol:

we know who you are and yeah you know who you are too :D

Re: 2" drop spindles...or not
 

maybe you could find out what the spindles were from and find a used set to try out for the cheaper option, or just bite the bullet and get a new set of standard spindles that fit your application.
like ogre says though, some springs take awhile to get their set.
curious, do your lower control arms sit level at ride height?
