Thanks all. I've been looking at the tru turn, I emailed ridetech to see if their spindle would work with the c5 hub. I know there is a shorter steering arm available, but they are rare to find. I bought cpp's intermediate steering arm and that still hits as well. Hopefully I will hear back from ridetech and see what they say. I'm not sure what steering arms interchange with the novas.

We will be at the Goodguys show in Indy this weekend. It would be a good place to look at the Tru Turn and discus your project. A lot can be accomplished when the components in question are at your fingertips.

The short version is that our spindle will not work with the Corvette hub. I would also comment that even if you get a variety of components to actually bolt together, it doesn't neccessarily mena that they will function correctly as a unit. Our recommendation of buying a complete engineered system has nothing to do with making extra sales and everything to do with making sure your car performs at its peak. I think [hope?] you'll find this same advice from any other competent suspension manufacturer out there.

Hope to see you at Indy!

Thank you Bret, and I agree about buying a complete setup, I would love to be able to run a complete setup from you guys, just out of the budget at this point..lol So I guess at this point I need to go back to the drawing board. I will def stop by and see you guys this weekend!

It was the spindles, bolt on hubs, and brake package. Is there a way to adapt the c5 brakes to a nova or tru turn spindle?

Yes, there is a bracket and hub kit you can buy from Kore3.

I believe the Tru Turn less spindle kit (part number 11169525) should work with the CPP spindle. The factory steering arm bolts up to the spindle just like stock.
