Richard,

Admittedly I chose the too high of rear spring rates. I started off with 300 lb/inch rears. But, with the rear bar disconnected, the car still understeers a fair amount. Next springs I'm going to buy will be around 240-250lb/inch and I'm hoping to be able to use a 22mm stock rear bar.

My car weighs about 2850, perhaps thats why I'm finding I need more spring? I don't have a full out race car.
Grant,
you should really try no more than 175 lb springs. But what do I know

Does anyone have any ideas on where i can get a pair of drop spindles, i am based in the UK and what price am i looking at?
Moynesey,
I have a pair of drop spindles that are 1 1/8 inch drop (require 16 inch wheels)with 2 inch steering arm drop I made for my GTV6. They are Milano/GTV6 type spindles (large bearing size) but I have a set of Alfetta (small bearing) uprights in the shop that could be dropped. All should be done based on each fitment.
Send me an email at alfar7@aol.com. I have a few sets over there.
