OK. So I bit the bullet and bought the setup I was describing. The part number I bought was 6370SWBK6OE. This is described as "1963-70 O.E.M., 6-lug, drop, kit ". The kit comes with 2.5" drop spindles in the new smooth casting (no stiffening ribs on the "front" of the spindle (rotor side)). I took measurements of the spindles (distance from center of LBJ hole to wheel mounting face) and here are the results.
_____________________ LBJ Hole to Wheel Mounting Face
CPP CP4S2 Spindles ____ 5.302"
'70 C10 Drum Spindles___ 4.703"
____________________________________________________
Difference_____________ 0.599"
The CPP CP4S2 spindles move the wheels
OUT relative to stock '70 C10 drum brake spindles by
0.6" EACH SIDE.
The actual drop is very close to the advertised 2.5".
Thus, the offset chart supplied by CPP (found here:
http://www.classicperform.com/Instru...fset_Chart.pdf), which claims 1/16" wider than drums is incorrect.
