Aftermarket stock style spindle?

Just to clarify what Mike is saying..."short" means stock height, not dropped or shorter than stock. We call them short to differentiate them from the "tall" spindles.

If you want to stick with the stock type spindles versus something like the AFX option, I would find a clean pair of original, take-off spindles myself. Disc or drum, they're still going to be better quality than what I've seen from the imported ones in the past and you should be able to get brake kits to suit your needs either way if upgrades are in your plans.

Also since he is planning to do the g-mod, tall spindles won;t work.

If you haven't done the G-mod yet, I would save the time by not doing it and buy the ATS tall spindles.

Some more info...

I already have a set of Wilwood 4 piston front brakes. Nothing fancy but something I picked up when plans were more focused on drag strip . Regardless I want to still be able to slap on some 15" wheels so I think I'm stuck with small brakes anyway. I think this also precludes me from using the ATS spindles tall or short.

Hearing that OEM spindles are stronger than the aftermarket ones is not what I wanted to hear but certainly something I thought was a real possibility. That's a bummer. That's also why I asked here before just ordering up a set from random manufacturer.

Thanks,
John

ssbc has a brake kit available for the ATS spindle that will fit "Most" 15 " wheels we are currently workingto see if we can sell them. but you can always check them them out on line
