How messed up those a spindle design have to be for it not to align, sounds like just a straight faulty design.
The only issue is those A-arms are expensive as hell.

it is of my opinon that both these companies took the mcgaughys spindel and had a mold made from it. they look too much alike at least djm made a hole through the spindle down near the ball joint boss but besides that its idenical in my opionion

i hope this shows you guys that i dont lie make up stuff just to get sales. as was implied by someone on here.

Yeah you were right, those do look alot like the McG spindles, they also ran the same lock nut/upper hub bolt design the McG one runs.
Also, that DJM spindles looks nasty lol.....

never said you made it up just way it all went down i wanted proof thats all.

now as for the lawsuit like i said what was the result on the paper work cause anyone can sue someone and then gets dropped in court?

i never said they sued them just that they shut them down federally for patent infringments. i never said they got sued that would mean they whent to court and there was an outcome from it. the papers were filed with the court system they got served (djm and bell) and they stoped making the parts. thats what happened.
i belive you said in one of your posts maybe not on here but gmfullsize i dont remember where it was that djm never made a spindle and they never heard of a lawsuite. well theres the proff
like i said, i never said they got sued just shut down federally.
thanks tim

read post 28 on the djm thing i posted above.

what is done is done. Belltech changed their design this applied to the old spindles and they still sell well. From what the paper work shows it was copied and then changed.

djm sticking to a arms and thats that. Thanks for clearing all that up for everyone and especially me tim since i sellt he parts and wanted to know the true story.

How about DJM you give me some free A-arms, and then Tim some free spindles, and I will run them (1000 miles each) and give the best unbiased review, then return the loser of the review back to whoevers product is not as good to me? :hands:

i shold do that with the kbee coilovers. Just the spring rate is what im dealing with now on them but they lower up to 3 inches. I've sold over 180 sets for the trailblazer guys over 3 years nothing but good reviews and i hope to be doing the same for these 07 up trucks also
