    will 2 in drop spindles and torsion bar turn to lower a little bit more cause for a crappy ride? My **** is dumped right now with torsion bars backed all the way out and no bump stop with 4in blocks in rear .(stock spindles)
    Rides like **** of course :verdict_in:

    The drop spindle will just get you closer to Mother Earth with out messing with the torsions. You can do both, but you're still gonna have a crappy ride.

    you can do drop spindles lower control arms that give's you 5" of drop right there... idk if u can do ball join flip with the control arms if u can that would give about 6" of drop for the fount w/o cranking your bars down

    so if i went with spindles and lower control arms with good shocks and torsion bars stock i will have a some what a smooth ride??
    Also can bags be installed later on without having any issues if i were to go with aftermarket lower control arms?

    Are Chassis Tech drop spindles any good? I found some on ebay for $160.

    Should I replace any bushings, front/rear, while I'm dropping it? If so, which ones?
