Default g-body with AFX spindles

Hey guys need your help. I'm going to be ordering AFX spindles for my Regal, btw the car is equipped with 17" wheels.

I want to upgrade to four wheel discs. I don't want to use Baer, seems a bit pricey. What other options are there for complete kits.

I don't want to order from 5 different places.

thanks,

jason

g-bodies don't need a tall-spindle conversion; why the afx units?
just looking to save the unsprung weight?

From what I've read in the past, the G bodies still benefit from better negative camber gain with taller spindles. Not too sure on other things though.

you could just run taller ball joints if you want more camber gain.
you'd be much better served spending your dough on superior brakes then other components.
Howe and several other companies make the tall BJ's.
pick up an issue of any stock car racing magazine; g-bods are still very very popular in lower levels of circle racing and there's a ton of good stuff for good deals for them
