Do your drop spindles come with the lug assembly attached?

usually Max askes for your old knuckles as a core. (75 bucks i think) then you get the modded "spindle".. with NOTHING on it.. you use all your stock stuff to put it all back together. if you check my profile you can see the Titan knuckles Max built for me. I've had NO issues from them, and it was cake to swap all the stock parts over. took me about 3 hrs start to finnish including cleaning everything as i went.... Thats a bass ass titan you have there... lemmy know if you need anyother info about the knuckes..

Did you need any special tools to get the lug assembly off? I can't break those 3 bolts on the backside of the spindle? I tried using an impact and that isn't even working.

WOW.. - No no special tools.. try a breaker bar.. I dont know about you, but my big butt can get more torqe on a breaker bar that your average home owner impact (and some of the ones at the shop too) after you get them loose, leave them in place with only a few threads exposed (99% of the bolts still in there)and TAP the assemply out of the knuckle (Tapping on the heads of the bolts-- keep it even of course)
good luck.. as i remember they were TIGHT, but not too bad. You'll get it.

Thanks for the info. I am going to go and try it now. My spindles are due to be delivered on Monday. I've been waiting for them for a while. I can't wait to get them on! Have you had any issues out of them at all. Word of mouth is that Max is bad dude, so I went ahead and ordered mine...

The spindles worked out great. The camber is almost gone!
