LG Drop Spindles
Got a set of LG Drop Spindles coming for my 2012 Centennial GS. Has anyone here installed a set? Is it easy (I do most of my own work and know my way aroud a car)? Anything to look out for? Installation looks to be pretty straight. Thanks in advance!

Just as an update to this install, if anyone is thinking about installing these yourself, they are a piece of cake. Litterally unbolt the old ones and bolt on the new ones. Special tools needed:
34mm deep well for the rear axle nuts
T55 torx drive (get an impact one, 1/2" drive) for the hubs. Will definately need a good strong 1/2" impact gun to break these loose.
Thanks!

I am very glad I installed these. They do exactly what I was hoping for; reduced ride height for a better look (IMO) without decreasing the effective shock travel, keeping the suspension geometry correct, and not adversely affecting the ride comfort.
