In the pic you have less than three inches of suspension so it needs to be firm or the wheels will hit, adding dropped spindles will not change that. Not wanting to pee on your parade or anything :mrgreen:
Ozziedog,,,,,,,,, in my opinion, of course :mrgreen:
Not going to go lower now - going to stay roughly the same height as i have anyway and keep current tyres :mrgreen:
current setup is the beam is on the lowest settign on the adjusters as it is running kyb gas shocks
adding the drop spindles will give me 3 1/2" drop with adjusters on highest setting so will defo give me more suspension and a smoother ride as its not simply lowered on adjusters now?
I think what Ozzie is alluding to is correct. The reason your ride is harsh just now is not because of the adjusters (these won't actually change the feel of the suspension compared to a stock setup, as all they're doing is rotating the leaves) but because you're running on the limits of the ball joints. Adding dropped spindles and raising the adjusters back up will give you your suspension travel back, but you will likely find that your tyres will be hitting the arches with your current ride height / tyre choice.
