I basically just want to know if its just me who's had these types of issues.
09 Silverado crew cab
Doing 4/7 drop
(McG flip kit / helper bags out back, McG springs / spindles upfront)


So we do the fronts now. No problem passenger side.
Drivers side we run into a huge problem.
The hole for the top ball joint of the spindle wasn't finished(or not finished properly) I guess? It was about .200's too small top and bottom of the tapered hole.
It kept binding up while reinstalling.

Luckily my dad used to be a machinist and a few of his friends are still in the trade. We go over to my dad's buddy's place and make a bit from grinding down a cutting bit so it has the same angle on the taper, going from .680 down to .440

Finally got back home just now.
12 hours of work and its still not done.
Just need to rebolt up the spindle and knuckle.
Put everything back together. Bolt on tires and then get an alignment.

**** ME

The Spindle at the steering wheel bearing just cracked on the drivers side when we were bolting it on.
On the phone with McG right now
