Title: 1980 c20 2in Drop Spindles
Post by: Jxhcob on October 14, 2022, 08:47:06 PM

I’m trying to do a 3/5in drop on my 1980 c20 I’m looking for 2in drop spindles as well as 3 in drop shackles I can’t seem to find them things anywhere. Has anyone used these in the past and still have a link to them? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all!

I'm not sure they even make 2" spindles or 3" shackles to be honest. That much of a drop with just the shackle will mess your pinion angle up big time. Most 3/5 drops use a 3" spring in the front with a flip kit or shackle/hanger combination in the rear.

I'm having the same issue on the 2" drop spindles.
I know ive seen them before - but now that im ready to buy, can't find any.  Can buy 2 1/2" all day long!
