WTB: spindle...

I am looking for a spindle, left or right doesnt matter. stock is fine. gouged is ok too, i just need straight. looking for cheap and preferrably local, i dont want to pay a load for shipping but wont turn down reasonable. I am not even going to use this spindle except for compare and contrast against a 81-87 spindle. I am wanting to see what modifications i may need to make a 88-98 lift spindle work on my 82. thanks....

while i can't get you a spindle just yet, i can take a look at some basic things like height of spindle, distance from top and bottom balljoints in relation to the spindle centerline and tie-rod attachment point. i've got a 89 frame here and my 90 burb up in the air and it would be pretty easy to compare the two. a check of partsamerica.com may give you diameters for balljoint and tierod holes as well.

any info you can get would help, it just easier for me to compare in person side by side. But will take what i can get...
