was thinking this winter on doing a set of drop spindles on the front of my buggy and am curious to get some feedback on any issues with the suspension with them .
currently im on a stock king pin beam with spring adjusters and some extended arms .
thanks for any feedback ,

Dropped spindles excellerate the wear on the king pin bushings a bunch. I would go with even longer arms and bigger tires. The car I'm doing now will have 4" longer 1" wider arms, neutral spindles and 6.70 tires.

I agree with Mike on this one. I will say if you have a lighter Buggy and your a non agressive driver than they are gonna be ok. If you still decide to go that route I have 2 sets of the Tweeds drop spindles Cheap. Both sets need rebuilt.

You got some good ground clearance onthe front of your buggy . why you looking for more? hell your gonna have to put a lift kit on the back.

How cheap i might be inrested?

Drop spindles end up causing more trouble than they are worth. Longer arm=more travel!

Make me a reasonable offer. They are around 500 new.

lets just ride

They seem to make a kingpin front end harder to steer to me, I am thinking of putting some drops on a ball joint front end and try that. I know a ball joint is not as strong, but they ride better in my opinon.

What about doing a set of spindles that would raise the front up 3" on a ball joint style front end???

Sorry for changing the subject at hand

The main advantage in my opinion is you don't have to change the entire front suspension using drop spindles. With longer arms you need more spring force due to leverage on the arms. But it should increase side leverage on the bushings as well, like the guys stated.
