Default different spindles for Xtreme???

I heard that if I needed to lower my 2001 xtreme 2" in the front, the spindles that would fit a s-10 blazer wouldnt fit my truck. Where can I get some then? Also, I have 20" rims, so would i need to do any mods?

Yep. Blazers have sealed hubs so the spindles are not the same. Belltech makes a drop spindle for our rides.

Part number is 2102


They are pretty expensive. Most expensive part of the drop.

Ignore the pictures, they are wrong.




20's should be OK if you keep the overall diameter the same as or smaller than the original diameter. I have 18's and with my tires I still have the stock overall diameter. I did not want my speedometer all messed up.

Only other thing I had to do was trim some of the front fender flares on the inside of the wheel well. I had to do it beacuse if I would turn sharp and hit a bump the tire would rub against the flare.
