You cant get a drop spindle set already drilled for 5x100 for get the set blank and get your studs (press in) from a local parts house and have a machine shop drill them and press in the studs. If the set dose not have them, I would go with new bearings lines and ball joints/tie rod ends. Don't forget a good alignment.
