Then it only stands to reason, use a drop spindle, and save the accelerated ware on the tires.

I have had a few. I had a 89 Mazda B2200 with the Lowrider set-up. Wire wheels, crushed velvet interior, Hydralics...and the whole nine yards. Then we went to the 95 Chevy Blazer 4 dr. 5-6 drop and 17 teens!! Of course this was 10 + yrs ago!!

The camber should only be like that when it is laid out. It should be fine at ride height.

The bolt pattern is the same but the bore in the center has to be machined out to fit over Mazda and Nissan hubs.

I always had a soft spot for Mini trucks, never did get to build one. I went the other direction and started lifting them. Good luck
