Maier Racing has been working on a NEW 1″ drop spindle for the 1965-70+ Mustangs. Available NOW~

1) We took a 1967 spindle design and changed it over to a 71-73 snout (bigger bearings).

2) We can sell them with or without brake mounts. The current off the shelf item is compatible with Wilwood brakes and hubs.

3) We moved the steering pick up point in 3/8″ for quicker steering and to help with tie rod end clearance.

4) We raised the snout 1″ to lower the car 1″.

5) NO NEED for the Shelby drop. KEEP the stock geometry for the upper and lower control arms.

6) Not every rim but… we have 18″ wheels now fitting over the upper ball joint and you can get bigger wheels under the car. In some cases you can get as much as 2″ of rim inboard. 1965 Mustang with 18 x 275 tires with stock or “minimal” massaging on the fender lips.

I've got to say it.....That looks sketchy as hell, especially when a fat sticky 275 tire is used. Can you explain some of the engineering behind it and materials used? Maybe it's just the pictures but it looks pretty frail compared to other custom spindles. What about the amount of flex that may be seen in the flat steering arm....not trying to be a total Richard but it looks like a Kart spindle or what's seen on my Riding lawnmower.
