What if I built dropped Tacoma spindles?How many of you would be interested?

What I am thinking about doing is building a 3" dropped spindle that uses the stock lower ball-joint and tie-rod, but has a uni-ball upper ball-joint mounted verticaly. The vertically mounted uni-ball limits steering, but not travel. The spindle and new upper ball-joint will bolt on with no modifications and lay on a 22 with no alignment issues.

If you would be interested how much would y'all be willing to pay? Remeber this would be a top-notch, hand built, TIG welded part.

249.99 i thin is fair, standard drop spindles are about 189.99 to 219.99, you could sell em for more but the KY Jelly isnt really necessary.

I don't need a guinea pig. I have a clip here that I can prototype from, thanks tho.

I want to clairify that I will build more than one set at a time, but they will all be hand built.

What if I could build them for about $600?

Those are mass produced parts, these would be hand built. It will cost me more than that to build them. I get $1000 minimum for one off spindles.
