Lowering my 87 dodge d100

You can get 2 more inches using Dakota dropped spindles a 2" spring for a 2nd gen will get you another inch anything much lower than that & the ball joints get at weird angles & the upper control arm starts hitting the steering shaft I've got a buddy in FL that runs that combo with a A-body 8 3/4 sitting on top of the springs

Too bad those spindles won't work on a 3/4 ton. That would make my build a LOT easier
 
If your truck has 1/2 lug studs they will fit I don't know for sure but I bet the rotor will fit too 87-91 Dak
 
You need to see if your truck uses the same bearings as the D150 If so then measure the O.D. of the rotor & compare it with the D150 If the O.D. is the same then you should be able to get away with it

Everyone keeps telling me that there's 5-7 different choices for bearings lol
 
I have all this wrote in a notebook somewhere along with a bunch of other crap that I've been writing down for these trucks for 25 or 30 years now
