    Price seems good. I've heard mixed reviews on CHASSIS TECH.

    Ive bought air cylinders from Chassis Tech for my Eclipse & Ive been satisfied with them. For the price you cant go wrong & I personally done see paying more for just a name lol!

    I sent back a set of chassis tech I got off ebay a couple years back, they were junk. I think the belltech is a much better spindle. blocks are cheap...

    They're what I've run for almost two years now. Once they are installed, they look like every other brand. Which is pretty funny, word on the street is that they are cast in the Bell foundry, the same place that the Bell Tech spindles are made.
    Paint them first....

    no they are good. i guess it all depends on how you can afford and want it to be. really anyone can have bad experience and others cant. but i also think it depends on the driver itself. some guys have low low trucks and drive it like its a 4x4. to me its what fits your need/ pocket:)

    I'm glad someone else out there is asking this question. I'm about to put on the drop spindles and wasn't sure who to go with.

    Lot of info here to chew through!

    This is probably true, I've also heard that MAC, Snap On, and Craftsman tools are all made in the same factory, just stamped with different names so I'm sure there is a possibility that Belltech just stamps a Chassis tech logo on some spindles and sells them.
