    AIM drop spindles

     



    I'm looking at buying some drop spindles for my 53 Ford Pickup project (79 Chevy C30 IFS). Ran accross several options, one of them is www.aimind.com Their price $199 is fully half of what a set of belltech spindles costs. So I'm wondering if anyone has experience with them, good or bad.

    Thanks

    Most stuff that I have seen from AIM is sub-standard. I refuse to use any drop spindels but, Bell Tech. I broke a ChassisTechniques spindel on an S-10. Not a pretty ride at 55mph.

    What I find very odd is that the belltech and Aim/chassis tech spindles look like they are the exact same casting. Not just bearing a passing resemblance, but identical. Where the western chassis spindles look quite different.
