Search a Crown Vic board, best bet for you with GM parts. Try Crownvic.net
Hint: Learn punctuation, spelling and sentence structure, it'll help you get intelligent answers over there ASAP.
I've never seen drop spindles for a GM, but since that would really only be for looks, or putting 13" wire wheels on, maybe check a lowrider board. Hope you're not thinking they will improve your handling. Lowering the center of gravity is fine, but all your other suspension geometry will go out the window, especially since you'll have to use some fugly and smallish rims.
God help you if you're coming here looking for help to bastardize a PANTHER....:bigcry:

Maybe I should have explained more. The car is bagged and im trying to lay the front out without doing major surgery and after looking at it we figured spindles would do the trick. i just cant seem to find any. Thanks for the info. im gonna try that site.

Hey, you've got a classy car with good mods, your signature lines tell the story. Are you telling me you want to see another Panther bastardized to lowrider specs? That's worse than ricer-izing it!
And seriously, is it too much to expect that someone who is old enough to drive can communicate in an age-appropriate way?

Why is it that everyone here screams blue murder when a photo of a chintzed-out Panther is posted, but this post is somehow wrong? My bad.
I'm still unsure what the poster means by saying "the car is bagged and I'm trying to lay the front out." Guess that's one of those wonder-airbag applications. Guess I'm running in different circles, but to see a Panther with the left front corner "slammed" (as the kids would say) and the RIGHT rear corner pointed skyward while driving straight down the road, with an anchor-chain steering wheel is nothing most folks here would give the thumbs up to.
...BUT....since everyone is free to do their own thing, I gave him a link that will hopefully help him in his search.
Just remember...if it can be done to one Panther, it can (and might be) done to ANY Panther.

I do not know of any drop spindles for the 03 and up frame at this time. I believe the reason none have been made is that the numbers in demand are low plus the hub and ABS sensor are all one unit. I wish you luck on your quest.
BTW, aside from the ribbing above by some other members, Welcome aboard.
Another thing, since you have the 2005 model, have you done anything about the antenna in the rear (ie: power retractable)?
