Next item on the yerf agenda ... reverse drop spindles ...or riser spindles ... or what ever you want to call them. I'm going to pull the arms and create a new bracket and spindle setup to give about 2 more inches of front end clearance. Figure i will heat up and open the bracket top and bottom, widen it to have a 3/4 or 1 inch hole in it and do really long gussets down the arms to brace them. Also going to change the angle on it a bit to get rid of the positive camber at rest--because it will increase with the spindles, and extend the steering rod mounts upwards. It'll also have either bushings or bearings ... have enough old sealed bearings and some scrap to make it a no cost deal... The other end of the arm mounts need work too, i've bent both plates pretty good and the holes are getting really sloppy.
