Here is a pic of the Mcgaughys spindle from their big brake kit with a true C5 rotor and caliper. I am not crazy about the hubs they use with their kit so I mated a readily available and inexpensive street rod hub and vette brake to their spindle. I have to get some batteries for my camara tomorrow and take a pic of the bare spindle. Just so everyone is aware, its the same ole drop spindle with some milling done.

Is there a reason you use McGaughys spindles? Would DJM work as well?

Did you ever find out what the deal is on this. Buying some DJM dropped spindles now and want to upgrade to bigger brakes later
