hey guys, im looking for a way to drop my 79 buick regal for a more agrassive stance. but i still want to cruise around in comfort. are drop spindles a good way to do this?
but if they do, the only spindles i found are for 80-88 gm cars. what problems will i get when i use those on a 79?

i've seen that before to, we have eibach in europe to, but i dont no what to exspect when driving whit since ive never driven a sporty gbody. the reason im interrested in spindles is that they a lot cheaprr than a complete kit, and i dont really need to lower the rear because the rear is already low compared to front...
 
play cheap with your engine and risk a tow - play cheap with suspension and risk your life! Those drop spindles are for running 13'' 100 spoke dayton whire wheels they dont actually make the ride quality noticeably better
 
if you change to those spindles you probably have a small bearings spindle now so you'll have to change the rotors and bearings to fit the new spindles
 
what about s10 drop spindles? i read somewhere that they would work on g bodys. i know that the 78-79 gbodys were slightly different but i didnt think that it would affect it that much. i know the jeep steering shaft thing doesnt work on my 78 elky but id like to know about the drop spindles aswell.
