Thanks Skinny. I believe I will take an angle grinder and take off just enough to clear the lower control arm. Everything I've read and heard says the spindles are cast the same for all years. The difference is the holes bored out for the ball joints and tie rods. Wish I could find someone still running torsion bars with drop spindles. Seems most with the 60-62 swap out the front end.
