    drop spindles

     



    I rebuilt the suspension on my 74 Nova ss and now the front end sits very high, if I put 2 inch drop spindles on it how would it affect the suspension? Would it make it very stiff cause this is a daily driver so I cant have it too rough.

    Dropped spindles won't affect the ride quality at all. Question--Did you tighten all the bushings when the car was still on jack stands?? If you did, that will make the car sit up higher. The bolts and nuts that retain the bushings should not be tightened till the car is at ride height and bounced a few times.
