I have GW set up and the Baer brakes on My 71 and couldn't be happier with it. 5k sounds a bit excessive................... it should be closer to 3 with brakes for front and rear.......

Default Fatman Spindles for "A" Body

Has anyone actually tried the Fatman spindles? Should I be concerned about quality? They seem to solve the camber problems like the "B" body spindles do, they also lower the car 2" without getting lowering springs, they keep the steering geometry and (claim) to eliminate bump steer. They also should mount any aftermarket brakes that mount to stock disk spindles, so the possibilities are nearly endless. Sounds too good to be true. Am I off base?
Has anyone used these spindles?

Rinky, you're not off base. They do solve many of the problems associated with B spindles while still correcting the camber situation. Fatman has been in business for decades, I wouldn't worry about the quality of the part at all.
