first of all does anyone have a set of drop spindles for an s10 for sale, and lastly can someone tell me how to modify some upper arms to lay out on 20's? i know how to do the bottom but don't know how to do the top arms.

just behind the balljoint, pie cut the arm from the bottom and angle the tip of the arm downwards, when the truck lays out the arm will only go up so far because the balljoint binds, by pie cutting the arms downwards, it allows the arm to move up higher without binding the balljoint and stop it from layin out.

so all you are doing is making it where the ball joint won't bind up from angle-ing so much? i get it now. the last time someone explain that to me, i got confused by how they explained it lol

You got it bro! when the arms goes up (stock angles) it will get to a point where it's too steep of an angle for the balljoint, and won't let the truck lay, by angling the tip down, it allows the arm to rise high enough to lay without the balljoint binding so bad..... let me know if you have any problems bro, I'll help any way I can
