Can anyone identify these calipers an spindals
Trying to change tie rod ends and the outer ends are larger than what rock auto sent me. Previous PO did conversion to disk with drop spindal. Not sure what tie rod end I need. Thanks
(Will post up pics in a minute) |

Re: Can anyone identify these calipers an spindals
Sounds abut right. Had to use metric sockets for the bolts.
Is there any way to identify them? I need ball joints and outer tie rod ends that will fit. |

Looks like HD (1.25" wide) spindles, and calipers.
Upper ball joint or outer tie rod will tell you if they are 71-72 or 73-80. Take them to your local auto parts store and see which parts fit these spindles. Info sourced from here: http://www.promecanix.com/pdf_catalo...rs_Catalog.pdf

Re: Can anyone identify these calipers an spindals
Thanks fldawg and lolife. Took the calipers to the local auto pars place and matched up some tie rod ends and ball joints. Came off an 80s GM truck.
Added 2" drop springs to the 2" spindals while I was at it.

Re: Can anyone identify these calipers an spindals
Rear is 4" springs. The 2/4 drop seemed like it had a little rearward rake. So I added the 2" springs in the front. I tad lower than I expected but overall looks better.
Tires are 255/60r17 all around |
