[QUOTE="Graham L, post: 517034, member: 3481"] Hi J The only 3.5" dropped spindles available are the flipped ballpoint ones which will work but it all depends where the adjusters have been fitted in your beam, ie how far round on the beam. If they have been fitted to give you the drop just on adjusters hence the hard ride then they may not work as they could end up giving you so much drop that it will be on the floor but it's hard to say without seeing pictures of how your bus sits and where the adjuster is set to at the moment. Adjusters for use with dropped spindles are welded onto the beam to give you less drop and it's more about fine tuning rather than the full drop on the adjusters if that makes sense. French Slammer don't do the 3.5" dropped spindles and they will not improve the ride with the beam you currently have as all they will do is drop it by the amount unless there's enough adjustment on the beam to take it back up close to stock height. Hope that helps but pictures would make it easier to comment. [/QUOTE]
