I have mcgaughys 2 inch spindles and 3/4 ton purple keys. I have all new suspension up front also. My question was my upper ball joints look like there at a bad angle from where I'm dropped so much. My question is can I run the djm uppers without the lowers? I dont see why not jw If any other member has ran that set up. Love my spindles so dont want to put stock ones back on an do djm lowers

I had this exact same situation when I installed the belltech drop spindles. Belltech advised me to flip the ball
Joints in the uppers if I had a drop of 5" which I do. I choose not to and replace when they fail. I have the djm upper and djm 3" lowering control arm in addition to the drop spindles.
