Question Can you lower a FD by changing the spindles

I was talking to a friend about lowering my ride since the 19" rims raised it about 1/4 inch and i want it to sit better.He mentioned something about buying dfferent spindles, to lower the car. I haven't read or heard anybody going this route with a FD. Is there a company that offers it for the 3rd Gen?

No. About the only cars the aftermarket makes dropped spindles for are compact pickups and muscle cars. You lower an FD by using shorter springs or adjustable coilovers.
