Re: 85 GMC Sierra "Scarlett"
Chase at RideTech opted to include the new CPP Modular 73-87 C10 2.5" drop spindle upgrade to accommodate the Wilwood D52 calipers that I had previously installed. These spindles are designed to be used with the factory 12" HD rotors and bearings.
I bolted done the adapter bracket that was provided, and mounted the spindles in place. Since Chris was available to help hold things in place, we skipped to the front sway bar. RideTech has updated the Musclebar to a new design. We mounted the end links loosely and slid the bar in place. One end of the bushing clamps lines up with a factory hole and the other needs to be drilled. We tightened everything down and called it a night.
The the new MuscleBar requires a shorter version of the factory bushing stands. This kit is a beta version and did not include the stands. Notice that the end links are at an aggressive angle with everything in place and at full droop. We "assumed" that would correct itself when set on the ground. We all know what assuming does.
