Title: Djm 3" drop spindles questions
Post by: Lowhoe775 on November 11, 2014, 08:56:25 pm
Just got some drop spindles and I want to know where I need to grind on the brake caliper to clear. This is what I have read in reviews and forums but I see no pictures. Anyone have a picture that might give me an idea I just don't want to go to put them on and start to scratch my head.
    I got the djm 3"drop spindles part# DS2045H-3 thanks in advance

thanks for the feed back I just went to install the other night and found out that these spindles were for 1" thick rotors made me mad since I bought locally from Craig's list and now I'm trying to sell or trade them for 1.25" rotors o well lesson learned

If I had it to do over I think I would go with 2 inch spindles and a 1 inch spring.Sorry to here about the craigs list deal
