My question is,. if you are lowering 1 1/4" without changing springs, the OEM spring is being compressed 1 1/4"more thannormal. Doesn't this affect ride quality and handling ?

 

The spring is not changed at all the drop spindle raises the wheel upward to make it look drop it does not affect the geometryof the factory allinment.I had these on on a S10 chev pickup they worked great and they were easy to put on.

 

Ok, I understand, the wheels go up 1 1/4", the chassis goes lower, and the OEM supension is unchanged. So the spindle is "offset 1 1/4" ? It would be an up, rather than drop, wouldn't it ? (on the spindle)

 

can you post a link to the site ?

 

Yes. The point where the tire mounts is moved up 1 1/4 inches compared to the stock spindle. Drop spindles have been around forever. A lot of lowered trucks use them.
