I am looking for some 2" dropped spindles for my '53 Olds Super 88. I thought at one point several companies made them but can't remember which. These are for the stock front end. If anyone knows a source I would appreciate it. Thanks.

 

I can see the advertisement for the company that does them.. They advertise in Rod and Custom and I T H I N K they are called Fatman??

I don't know what type of look you are going for, but I always thought it would be cool to put an adjustable air bag suspension into my 64 98. I haven't don't much research into this but I recall the company name Fatman as well. Either way, I think your car will look sweet with a little bit of drop to it. Whether you do it with drop spindles or airbags.

 

I dropped my 55 convertible just by putting 60 series tires on it. This took it down about 1-3/4" and is easy to put back to stock if you decide to later. I lowered front and rear, but it would work on just the front also.

Good luck.

Thanks for the info, I thought Fatman may make a spindle but couldn't remember. I actually just got done installing a full Air Ride airbag system on the Olds. I am looking for the spindle so that I can get a little more drop out of the front and also help correct the camber when the car is riding lower. I already used 2" lowering blocks in the rear in addition to the airbags so the 2" spindle in the front will help even everything out.

 

fat mans makes a complete droped front end for that car,coil over ,or you could use the mustang stuff with it .the stub is already two inches lower and you could get another two inches if you use the mustang 2" spindels,a total of four inches ,but it would run you about 2750.00 a lot of money just to drop one down ,i know i done one for a guy out of knoxville
