Default Chassis tech susp parts??

Has anyone had any experience using Chassis Tech suspension parts (drop spindles and hanger/shackles)??? I have priced just about everyone out there and for a 2/4 drop using spindles and hanger/shackles, they are the cheapest by far $188 spindles and $90 hanger/shackle kit. Plus u can use the 2" spindles with 17" wheels and I dont have the $$ to dump on 20's yet.

I know a guy who's got about 50K on his kit and has has absolutely no problems... the shackles and hangers are kindof hard to mess up IMO... I would only run McGaughy's or Belltech front suspension parts.

No, no, no. Chassis Tech are made by ShAIM and are the cheapest for a reason.

I have zero problems with my hanger kit and coils. I bought them years ago before I heard they sucked. They have given me zero problems, but most people that haven't tried them claim they suck. Who knows....just pay the money for the high dollar kit and everyone won't dog you.
