Default New Z/28 spindle
Do you guys think suspension companies will start to design upper and lower control arms around the new Z/28 spindle?

I tried searching for more info about the spindle, but I didn't come up with much info.

For retrofit onto older vehicles?
I doubt it. There are so many choices already. Plus the Fatman/Ridetech spindle is doing so well.

I wouldn't rule it out, and if I am not mistaken, the newest Art Morrison offering (rear IRS suspension) utilizes the New Camaro upright/bearing unit.

However I think the next most likely candidate would be the all New C7 Corvette upright/bearing unit..

AM IRS got me thinking about newer Z28 parts. I also like that the new Z has carbon ceramic brakes.

If it's anything like the ZR-1 parts you'll need a VIN number to get them. And they'll check it.
