    Default Spindle question

    OK guys and girls what spindle has a bolt on steering arm besides the old chevy trucks,something that would be able to use a small rotor perhaps its a ford?I can't get close enough to look at it but the car that is running them has really been fast and its on a metric stub got any idea's?
    Thanks

    Your gonna laugh but the old AMC Pacer and Javelin used a bolt on steering arm.The same ones people use to make trailer axles.They work pretty good on metric cars with metric or nova lowers.They are getting harder to find but still pretyy common in most yards that have older stuff from the 70's.The pacer also used disc brakes

    I thought maybe just the ones with drum brakes have the bolt on arm, but i'm not for sure on that.

    the arm that the tie rod bolts to, it attaches to the spindle with two bolts Howe racing made them for years and may still make them I was more curious about the height of the spindle and the pin height if I can find out what it is.
