Default --RELEASE-- LG Motorsports C7 Corvette Billet Drop Spindle

--RELEASE--









LG Motorsports is proud to introduce our latest Corvette suspension component, the LG Billet C7 Drop Spindle!

These spindles will allow you to lower your Corvette 1 full inch over stock while maintaining correct control arm geometry and shock travel. Now you have more room to play with on ride height adjustment on your factory leaf spring, or choose our G2 coil over kits for even further adjustments!

These are especially great for those with the magnetic ride shocks, as you can now have more height adjustment without disrupting your shocks or height sensors!
  • 1" lower than stock
  • No loss of shock bump travel
  • No loss in proper control arm geometry
  • stronger wheel bearing mount
  • stronger brake caliper mounts
  • less deflection on track
  • Retains all OEM mounting points for brakes, bearings, sensors
  • Bolt on install
  • Lower center of gravity for increased performance


MSRP $2995.95 for the set of four
Dealers welcome

That's a great price. Any plans to make them for other cars like the 5th gen Camaro?

That is a great price and I'm not one to complain but sure your not missing a number in there?

The cost on the ball joints is probably 1/4 of that price.

Yes the raw material is more. Definitely a digit missing. For that price I'll take 10 sets.

Installed a set on our C7 Z07 package car.

Ride height dropped one inch with no other modifications. You can lower the Z07 cars another 1/2" front and 5/8" rear on the stock adjusters, or raise slightly as well. The Z06 (non Z07) cars have almost 1" front and rear to lower the car over stock (due to spring change between the cars I would assume).

I have more sets shipping to customers now.

Bone stock C7Z51 compared to our C7Z06 with LG drop spindles and lowered on factory bolts (as low as it can go without coil overs).

Dave at ForgeLine just installed our billet drag spindles along with a awesome set of ForgeLine AR1 one piece monoblock wheels on his C7Z!

'Performance Corvettes', one of our dealers, just finished this C7Z today with our spindles and aftermarket lowering bolts.

What size wheels can you run with these? Anything smaller than a 18"?

Dave at Forgeline is trying different wheels on his car and will let me know.

I believe a 18" should work.

Those of you on the HotRod Power Tour can see some in person along with some killer ForgeLine wheels.

The ForgeLine C7Z06 is on the tour right now so be sure to stop by and talk to Dave and check out the car!
