drop spindles, long shock package adjusted to the bottom of the install range.

There is no benefit I see to running a front end with drop spindles at stock ride height unless the suspension is designed for it. With 2" drop or standard height spindles, HDK could not run the longer shock without the HDK (exclusive) upper shock mount / support hoops. It is a combination of...

I understand your question, but I don't necessarily agree with your conclusion. Using a 2" drop on an OEM suspension, the only advantage I see is what they are intended for, to lower the nose 2" while keeping the control arm and tie rod angles the same. On an HDK, the 2" drop was incorporated...

No, a shock with greater travel utilizing a longer spring IMO, affords a smoother ride. Don't believe me?......check with an off-roader The specific HDK design is what allows the other (proprietary) benefits.

The silver Duster was built almost 20 years ago and while a power rack was added only a few years ago, the Duster has always had 5.5" of travel, a smooth, non-harsh street ride utilizing unmodified 2" drop spindles and tie rod ends (vs heims). I guess you might say I figured a 2" drop spindle...

silver Duster and the butterscotch Demon utilize 2" drop spindles compare with the race car in the background that has OEM standard height spindles

No ****, if you install 2" drop spindles in a car designed for a standard height spindle and do not drop the car 2", then yes the geometry changes. Just like if you drop the car 2" with non drop spindles, the geometry changes. To be clear......front end geometry revolves around and is...

the 2" drop spindles are designed to do exactly that, a 2" drop on the nose, no idea why you feel the need to add the snarky remarks. The drop spindles move the spindle pin up 2", thereby lowering the front 2". EVERYTHING else stays the same. new year....same BS

additional stiffening for a street car?, nothing else is needed, just the HDK components. JMHO, unless your car is not a solid piece to begin with, the USCT stiffeners just add unnecessary weight. an OEM (60's -70's) P/S pump works great. If you go aftermarket, buy one with the correct...

a 2" drop (short answer) will allow you to lower your car 2" while keeping the same suspension geometry. HDK uses this to not only lower your car but to utilize a longer shock. Longer shock=longer spring= more travel (over all the other conversions available)= a nicer / less harsh ride...

hope it likes it new home...... sneak peak inside the new HDK facility

OK, It is beginning to appear it may be an OEM steering box. Please keep me posted. Denny

I believe you are on the right track, I would say you have the wrong coupler. As I remember (????) you did not know what spline or shaft size you had but told me you were using a PST manual steering box, so I believe I got the shaft spline and count from the PST site? let me know what PST...

no habla

you would be right at home there, especially on guacamole night.
