Blake can you give me a little education on spindles's. Whats the advantage from your spindle to the stock C6 Vette spindle I have with my DSE sub? And will your spindles work with the ZR-1 set up. I will have to change my spindles to a ZR-1 spindle. From what I have been reading this must be done do to the 2010 ZR-1 rotors and brakes I'm running.I guess theirs a heat issue that causes the bearing to fail on the stock C6 spindle.. So give me some input!!! I have to have something from Speed Tech on my car

well first off on the DSE sub that runs the factory C6 spindle/hub and ours are not compatable. the DSE sub is designed arround the c6 spindle, our spindle is designed arround the First gen sub. so neither are interchangable.
as for the ZR1 stuff, it is a little early to know if the brakes are compatable. they obviously work on Jackass. Mark would be the expert on this topic
i do know that our spindles are NOT compatable with the ZO6 hubs. the hub casting on the ZO6 is larger ( i will assume ) the bearing inside is larger. and will not clear the lower stud mount.

have a set for my 67 chevelle. Took over 6 months to get and another 2 to get the steerng arms, but damn they are nice. However, I dont think you can use them without the steerng arms. Or, am I wrong?

well when we looked at the real cost, and the fact that we are not doing this JUST for the fun of it. there was no option but to make the price what it is now, if we were going to continue to bring this top quality product to market and make it available to all of you it was the only option we had

Sorry this is off topic, but Mario, you'll have to post up your findings on the ZR1 brakes!
