73 spindles on a 66
will 73 -87 spindles fit right on a 66 and will it keep the same height?

Re: 73 spindles on a 66
Using 73-87 BJ's they'll fit your 66 a-arms. You'll need adapter tie-rod sleeves as the tie-rod size differs between drum & disc set-ups. The 'height' will be the same unless you switch to dropped spindles .

Re: 73 spindles on a 66
And if you want some, I've got a good set of 73-87 uppers and lowers (off a '77 p/u?), along with a set of '68 uppers and lowers. Free for you, if you come pick em up. Pics can be provided if needed.
I'm about 5 blocks southeast of the Zoo in metro Atlanta.

Cool. Does the master cylinder and brake booster bolt right up aswell?

Re: 73 spindles on a 66
That takes a little more effort. The easiest way is to grab an adapter from Captainfab here on the board & then bolt up the master cyl/booster. The 67-72 stuff works well but there are other options depending on the 'look' you wish to achieve.
