shortening the spindle is going to give more drop without the balljoint binding. If your talking about getting less lift....its not that much of a difference.

I think some bigger pictures would help so people can see the quality of the work.

They are preheated and welded back together with machinable nickel rod and buried for a few hours to cool slow. Same process is used for the plating and we have also been careful to keep everything aligned. Sorry for the small pics, i have no clue how to make them bigger.

WHAT IS THE PREHEAT METHOD YOU USE IS IT TORCHED OR PUT IN A OVEN AND GRADUALLY HEATED UP?
