[Tigers] Drop Spindles

[Brent Edinger]

I ran a set of these on my Alpine race car and the only problem I encountered
was when I ran a set of 185/60-13
tires the oil pan would scrape the track under heavy braking. (all braking is
heavy when racing). With the 205/60-13
tires it didn't scrape but I bet it was very close. Don't know if the tiger
pan has better clearance but I wouldn't run them on the street.
Other then that the car handled great with them installed. I bought one, in
1990 from RJ Grimes and the other from a wrecking yard in
Australia.
