Hey all,
I've got an issue (or two) that a 1" drop spindle would be perfect for. I've got the '70 drum spindle, with Baer discs and a 17x8 4.75" BS Coy's C-67 wheel on. Oh, and Unique Performance coilovers. The problem is that the 4.75" BS, while ideal for most Mustang applications, is very close to hitting my UCA "knuckle", and in fact does scrape slightly under very hard braking, when (I assume) the spindle flexes. A 1" drop spindle would get that UCA out of the way but still not put my tie rod ends in danger of touching the wheel/tire.
The other issue is that with the amount I've lowered the front, the coilovers are almost at the end of their adjustment (fully extended), and that lowers my initial spring rate - I want it stiffer up front. A drop spindle would allow me to tighten up the coilover a bit.
So, anyone got a source for this? My 4-wheel Baers give me outstanding stopping power, but when I hit them hard, scrapey scrape scrape on the front right wheel . . .
Also, a drop spindle should help lower the roll center, avoid any bumpsteer issues, and give a better scrub radius . . . right?
thanks in advance Stangnet!
