Re: spindle quesion..

and flip it upside down to so you can still use the tie rods and that only thing i cant figure out is the breaks would be on the front would that still work?

No.

Your upper and lower ball joints are drastically different so you're not going to be flipping anything over and still have the ball joints fit into the holes.

And your steering can't be swapped around to be behind the crossmember. There's a big old engine right in the way.
