Drop kit

For any of you that are looking for a drop kit, I just came across this. I know nothing about this company except they look just like the ones I got for mine a # of yrs ago. AND the price is pretty hard to believe. In fact, I would call to see if its correct. Remember, these are for fhe spindles that are used with the 'up grade' stuff from a donor truck from the early to mid 70s trucks spindles. BUT the price is pretty great. Think I may get a couple sets for future projects...
There are two type listed for a donor project. One type is for drums and the other is for dics from the donor.

It looks to me like the link is for the tie rod relocator, not the I beams.

These are the AIM beams. I have them in my '66. Beams seem good, I'm not too crazy about the tie rod relocators. Some say these beams increase the front track width and looking at my front wheels I'd say that's probably true (I haven't driven the truck since they've been installed-motor's out). I wouldn't want to use them with a wide wheel on the front.

There are two ways you can go. The one pictured or the ones that use the factory king pin. I have the king pin ones. There was no change in the alignment, just the 3" drop.
