2" Drop Spindles

[drogg1]

It looks like the Belltech drop spindles have jumped in price. I found these :

They appear to be the same for about $35-$40 cheaper. This is the cheapest price I've seen. Just thought I would let anyone who may be looking into drop spindles know.

when putting these spindles on the g body do you have to use s10 rotors and calipers as well?

you do need to use the newer metric style rotor hubs. i have a 1979 and used my friends rotors for a 1987

Does it mess up camber and caster when installing drop spindles? What about alinement?

An alignment is always recommended whenever you replace steering/suspension parts. Even if the new parts are identical to the old parts, you probably needed an alignment anyway. It's kind of like replacing the gear oil in your rearend. If you're wondering if it's time to replace it -- it's time.

The s-10 and G-Body spindles are the same according to belltech site for 80-88 gbodies

You will need an alignment and also your swaybar endlinks will prob break so pick up a set of them before you start the installation
