Default drop spindles

Does anyone have any experience with drop spindles? I found this site www.racecraft.com and they have 2" drop spindles for the 05+ mustang. they look pretty solid and well made, as opposed to the only other drop spindles Ive seen for our cars. It seems that a drop spindle would be the ideal way to go for performance driving ie the stock geometry is maintained. And after you figure the cost of lowering springs, caster/camber plates, ball joints and bumpsteer kits, all of which can be avoided the cost starts to look attractive too. Im just wondering if there are any overwhelming cons of this mod.......

I posted about those earlier this year or last year(search helps). Anyways yes its probably the best way to go with lowering, but for the most part you won't get that extra performance a set of springs offers and/or struts. I only needed camber bolts and springs, none of that other stuff was necessary for my sportline drop.

i did try a seach and did see your thread. believe it or not there now may be NEW information and or users of things so a new thread/request for info is not unreasonable as there was very little info for 05+ stangs. but i appreciate the suggestion.

N/P, figured it might keep the forums from getting cluttered with the same topic.[sm=smiley20.gif]
