Not sure about the spindles. Most folks I know dropped the front using new keys. As for the rear 2" drop springs can be had pretty cheap from Belltech and others. If my math is right you'd end up with a 3/4 drop. That will look great. Good luck

When dropping wiyh keys,has anyone had priblems with alignment?Thats the main reason i wanna go with spindles.

Sorry no personal experience with keys. Mine doesn't have them. Got a few friends that used keys without alignment issues. I think they used keys because it's cheaper and could be reversed easily.

Spindles > keys any day, every day. Spindles will drive/feel like stock. Keys will start to ruin your ride the lower/higher you go.

Not sure about the 99 spindles because those are probably different than the 00-06 spindles. You'd have to get the part numbers to confirm though.

And I'm not sure how the NBS PPV's are dropped. I know the NNBS are dropped with springs.

Totally agree. 07-13 dropped with springs and spindles. No keys on this model.
