Re: Ridetech Arms, Dropped Spindles, and 15" Wheels
Unfortunately it's not that simple of a question. Wheel offset also plays a part in whether your combination will work. You can have interference between the wheel and the tie rod.
I replaced my factory lower control arms with reproduction ones and I had to grind them so the brake rotors didn't rub. So mixing aftermarket parts causes more problems. What brand spindles? Some of the cheaper ones are not always the drop they are advertised to be. Found that out on a Firebird some years ago. One side was 2 inches and the other side was 1 5/8" needless to say it took us a bunch of messing around to figure out why the car didn't sit level.
Manufacturing inconsistencies will mean that what worked on my truck may not work on your truck.
What does RideTech say?
Can you post the wheel sizes and who's spindles you have?
