Ridetech Tall Spindles Pair Buick | Chevrolet | Oldsmobile | Pontiac 1964-1974
$475.00

RideTech Spindle 11009300

Upgrade your classic ride with the RideTech Spindle 11009300, designed specifically for a variety of vintage vehicles including the Buick Skylark, Chevrolet Camaro, and Pontiac GTO. This heavy-duty forging stands approximately 1.75 inches taller from ball joint to ball joint compared to the OEM spindle, altering the upper control arm angle to enhance negative camber gain. This change significantly maximizes tire contact during cornering, giving you better handling and performance on the road.

Key Features

  • Increased Suspension Travel: The spindle features a 2-inch pin drop, allowing for the installation of longer shocks which translates to improved suspension travel.
  • Brake Kit Compatibility: It works seamlessly with any brake kit designed for stock disc brake spindles, making upgrades hassle-free.

About RideTech

Ridetech manufactures exciting suspension systems that improve the handling and ride quality of your muscle car, truck, Corvette, or hot rod. From restorations and show cars, to high-speed autocross and track day cars, Ridetech offers a wide range of premium products including air suspension systems (air ride), coil-overs, shock absorbers, coil, and leaf springs, tubular control arms, roll bars, sway bars and much more.

Technology

RideTech greatly improves the ride quality and handling performance of your late model muscle car. Choose coil-over suspension, air suspension or monotube shock absorber upgrades. RideTech’s engineering team starts from the ground up with impact forged aluminum shock absorbers bodies that are vastly superior, with respect to quality, to anything offered from the factory. As such, RideTech offers an unbeatable 1,000,001 mile warranty. Like high-end exotics and race cars, RideTech shocks are monotubes. The design provides precision rebound and compression control as well as enhanced reliability. 

Coil-overs are popular upgrades for Mustangs Camaros and LX muscle. A Coilover is simply a shock surrounded by a coil spring; it places the shock and coil in one linear unit. A Coilover is a simple solution for most suspension designs, but can often be difficult to understand what you need. Fortunately, RideTech has your back with 21 years of suspension development.

Choosing a coil-over begins with two important decisions. The first is choosing the function of your vehicle. If you are building a performance car, then you will want a coil-over that has an adjustable shock. This allows the driver to tweak the “stiffness” of the suspension with a twist of a knob located on the shock. This adjustment knob controls the shock valving which controls the damping of the coil-over. This is a huge benefit for drivers who want to fine-tune their performance for the track, autocross, or the road. 

The second most important decision in choosing a coil-over is finding your desired spring rate for the coil spring. Spring rate is the force required to compress a spring 1″ and is an important factor in how comfortable your car rides and your ride height. RideTech has worked out ideal spring rates for your vehicle and intended driving style.
