Drop Spindle fitting

Just grabbed a set of drop spindles (for a ball joint and disc front end on a 68 chassis).

Is it a big job fitting them in your garage??? Anyone found a walkthrough???

The rear is lower than stock so do i need camber adjusters??? Best to fit them anyway???

Any other tricks i should know about?????? 🤓

Any help's great!!!!!!

Only info I could find.

I haven't done it, but really, it should equate to a straight swap, just follow the manual. Your wheel alignment will probably need to be corrected.

Come on AVD! Plenty of you must have done it.

Just finished an early. Late is easier if you can get the b/j tapers out of the orig stub (2 outer tie rod ends as well).You may need a b/j removal tool but most of these damage the dust boot. If your ball joints are worn, now is the time, and if so maybe a vw shop would be best as a 10 ton press is reqd (min). Awheel align is a must after installation.
