Ryane 2” drop Spindles not fitting (Page 1/1) winnie9200 JUL 26, 09:31 PM I installed a set of Ryane 2” drop spindles on my ‘88 but now my lower control arms are touching the inside of the wheels when the car is just sitting on the ground. It looks like it’s just the outer “lip” of the control arm that’s touching, but I can’t tell if the rest of the control arm will interfere throughout the rest of the range of motion over bumps and whatnot. I’m on stock springs and stock 15” wheels, has anyone else run into this problem? fieroguru JUL 27, 06:59 AM From here: https://web.archive.org/web...rsports.com/drop.htm quote 1988 FIERO Our drop spindles can be ordered to incorporate a 1", 1.5" or 2" suspension drop. The 1" model can be used with standard 15" Fiero GT wheels, but the 1.5" and 2" drop models require the use of 16" or larger diameter wheels for proper suspension/wheel rim clearance. The 2" model is recommended only for serious performance enthusiasts. As upward travel of the wheel is limited by the close proximity of vehicle frame members, in most cases it will be necessary to increase the front spring rate, making the suspension stiffer (and of course limiting wheel travel). All three spindles utilize the original Fiero wheel bearings and hubs and will work with either the standard '88 Fiero brakes or the 12" brake upgrade listed in this catalog. Black powder coat finish is standard, though custom colors can be ordered. Please note that a track width increase of 0.125" can be expected when installing either the 1" or 1.5" drop spindles. The 2" drop spindle does not change the track width. winnie9200 JUL 27, 10:13 AM Got it, thanks for sending that! Saved me a lot of trouble IMSA GT JUL 28, 10:25 PM Interesting webpage. Was that the company that Held Motorsport purchased? Those spindles in the photo look just like the Held ones. olejoedad JUL 28, 11:08 PM Rayne was purchased by Held which was purchased by Arrault. Arrault went out of business as well, but I don't know if anyone bought their jigs. fieroguru JUL 29, 08:12 AM quote Originally posted by olejoedad: Rayne was purchased by Held which was purchased by Arrault.

I seem to remember Jeremy @ Fiero Factory buying it, but I don't think he did anything with it. Villain posted on 11/1/22 that he had acquired it, but haven't seen him post anything from that product line for sale. quote Originally posted by Villain: In other news… I purchased Arraut/Held Motorsports today, hoping to bring back products into circulation! jb1 JAN 09, 09:48 AM I got what was left of Held , unfortunately jigs were destroyed and we are working on remaking those jig from the cad drawings etc. I have spoken with Dave Held on an occasion or two and he seems to be willing to help. My goal was to have everything back up and running by.mid 2024 , not sure that will be possible but smaller products will be available shortly and we will work through getting the majority of components available
