Whats the difference; McGaughys spindles
Whats the differences exactly between the 2" lowering spindle for 17" wheels(P/N)2003T and the 2" lowering spindle for 16" wheels(P/N)2000C?
Is one prefered over the other?
From what I have read McGaughys is the spindle of choice no?

the only difference is that one will work if you have 16" wheels and the other will work if you have 17" or larger wheels.
i heard that they are good spindles but ive also heard that the belltech spindles are better.

NOTE:McGaughy's makes two different spindles. There is a 16"+ spindle that will work on all wheels 16" and larger. However, these 16"+ spindles will decrease your turning radius. The better of the option would be to run their 17"+ spindles. These spindles can be used on all wheels 17" and larger. Also note, if you are running 17" wheels, you'll have to grind down the stud on your balljoint directly below the nut & cotter pin on it. Although this doesn't sound ideal, these spindles retain a factory-like ride and also keep the stock turning radius. Belltech also makes spindles. Their first design was junk from what I recall; however, they did revise the design and I believe the new design is a good design.
