Default Dropped Spindles for S197

Anyone know if there are dropped
spindles available for the S197 Mustang?
I want to slam the front end but want to
keep the stock steering geometry without
having to add camber bolts or bump steer
kits to correct for shorter springs.

Take a read thru this: http://corner-carvers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34665

The picture you posted looks like the Grantetelli spindle.

EDIT: note the thread is primarily about the Race Craft Drop spindles for the SN95. But keep reading, I'm pretty sure it says in there somewhere you can get a version for the S197.

Yup. They exist.... unless you already have quite a lot of other suspension work don theywont really aid handling except to lower your CG a little. Be better off with a lowering set up. But if you just want looks go for it. Just a random google search will net you the granetelliones http://www.jdsperformance.com/index....m&inmake=0. You will need 18" or larger rims btw.

If these really are your only front suspension mod I would do some research before you drop $400 on a set.
