Chevy Nova Lowered Spindles

Step by Step guide to installing a G-Comp front suspension on your Nova.

Watch as we install a front suspension lowering kit on our 1968 Chevy C10. Upgrades include disc brakes with a 5 on 5” bolt circle as well as 2” drop springs and 2 ½” drop spindles.

Dive into some of the history and unique differences between Ford and Chevy spindles for solid front axles and what will perform best on your hot rod.

To get the nose-up drag car look that we wanted for our Week to Wicked Nova project, we used one of our Gasser Axle kits. These bolt on in place of the stock front clip and instantly transform the car, making it look like it rolled right out of the 60's!

Follow along as our Tech installs dropped spindels and performs a disc brake conversion on his '55 Sedan. He utilizes a metric brake conversion kit.
