I have a 78 monte carlo that has some odd looking spindles on it. I bought the car this way so im not sure what they came off of. They have a steering arm that bolts on and a brake caliper bracket that bolts on for the big gm calipers. the spindles are in good condition they just look like they may have came off of an older car but not sure. anyone ever seen anything like these or know what they might have came from.

I think the older Pontiac spindles were like that. Like 61-65..

Cadillac had a spindle like that also. There were spindles like that on an old modified I had looked at. What year, sorry no idea.

does anyone know the measurements on pinto spindles. from the top to the bottom of the ball joints and from the bottom ball joint to the tie rod end center. The spindles on my car are very hard to find and i want to convert over to these to simplifiy things but also need everything to line back up.
