I'm sure someone has tried different Lower control arms and spindles on these things before.
I've heard Mastersbilt S7 stuff is a direct bolt on and really helps these older black fronts turn. ????

Not to be a negative Nancy, but the crossmember is going to be a huge disadvantage regardless of spindles. I'd put whatever spindle I could find with the lowest pin location and correct the geometry that needs fixed. Kryptonite might be the best choice.

I'm not that familiar with Rocket but you may be right about s7 spindles working. If so, it would help some, most likely.

Thanks, the raised Rt. Front and crossmember are on the list for the off season.

My friend has a Gen X Mastersbilt. It is the original extra ground clearance car in DLM racing. We had the steering rack raised over the winter. It helped immensely.
