Spohn And Others About The Brakes,

ok, i must Apologize, i didnt keep up with the posts about this, and will tonight,

but my questions are:

i saw a spindel on one of those pages, now i plan on dropping my car using spindels. how will this affect?


in lamens terms what is this conversion for?
(just making simple)

how will this affect my Changeover to C5 Rims?

And air suspension possibly.

THANX i know the questions are a bit dumb, but im lost.... thanx guys..

I remember something about the drop springs and the 1LE brakes... It should be possible, but you would have to be the test subject. I would like to do the same thing.

First,read this old topic.Then ask some questions. https://www.thirdgen.org/messgboard/...ML/001248.html
As for lowering,air suspension,4th gen rear,C5 wheels,etc.The drop spindles WILL NOT work with the 1LE front brake package!Also,the 1LE brakes were originally intended for high performance brake applications.But after installing mine.I feel these brakes should have been available on every 3rd gen car.This is why I did not put drop spindles on my car,I would have to give up 1LE front brakes.And I am not about to do that.
After reading the "old"topic through.Please ask any questions you may have.I will answer as soon as I can.But as ome of you may know I am very busy with my latest 3rd gen project(solving the sagging door problem).
Keep the faith,ANDYZ28
