The heights sound correct. PPM in Tennessee has them at great prices...877-560-0619

Spindles: If you want to get precise the LF is 10.875 and the RF is 10.125, however they will vary some (as much as .400" that I've measured over the years - all GRT manufactured spindles).

414banger: you can check with GRT but numbers listed by other posters are correct. GRT did not ever start over with numbers, they did skip some numbers but never went backwards. They would assign a number to a car ordered and if the order was cancelled they didn't build one with that number.

They build about 50 cars before they started numbering cars, I have owned several over the years and here are some numbers (appox) for certain years

94 = 134
95 = 354
96 = 500-700+ (They built a lot of car this year)
semi early 99 = 1214

I think you are mistaken or got told something wrong as I'm 100% sure there is no way either of the 2 car numbers you listed could be anything newer then a 98. However the only way to find out is to call GRT. Hopefully if you were purposely mislead on the car you bought, maybe you can get something worked out with the seller.

Good Luck

Unfortunately billetbirdcage is 100% correct...they never started over in their numbering system...there are some shenanigans going on with someone...IMO back to spindles, TWM made spindles for GRT for quite some time also

after further investigation the car is a 95 but ohwell it looks to be very well taken care of and never bent and has not been updated could anybody steer me toward a setup for this car as far as bar lenghts and such any help would be appreciated
