Does it require a differrent ball joint or can you re-ream the holes in the c4 spindle? Isn't the Corvette a front steer car and the Camaro a rear steer? Were the spindles swaped side to side to put the steering arm in the correct relation? If the geometry of the steering arms are wrong, can it simply be cut off and re welded? Is there another factory spindle that will work? These are the kind of things I was hoping to discuss. Thanks again, Jason

Caveat: I don't know anything more about this company than the information I found while doing a search.

L&H Kustoms is coming out with a set of spindles that, though not as advanced as the AFX spindles, they are less money.

Merry Christmas!
