Tutorial for swapping drop spindles...?

[randeez]

if you're 2wd you just need to remove and replace, leave the wheel bearings on the old spindle when you remove and put on the new spindle before you put it back in.

4wd needs the top balljoint stud cut down to clear the cv axle

for both if smaller than 19-20" wheel you will need to cut the lower balljoint stud down

What he said! I had to cut the top ball joint thread like a quarter inch to clear the cv boot. Also, per the Belltech instructions, trim the ABS line bracket before putting back together.

One more thing, spray paint the spindles black. These will rust overtime if you dont and you will be happy you did before installing!
