Place to buy new OEM spindles?

No luck with the suspension forum so I thought I would try here. I have an 86 with 1" rotors and I need a drivers side spindle and was looking to buy new but can't find any. Does anyone know where I can get one?

Thanks,

Ben

Hi Turbo,

No problem. I will hang on to them for a while so let me know if the ebay one doesn't work out.

Re: Place to buy new OEM spindles?

Hi Turbo,
I received my spindle and it appears to be in good shape but the new bearing I bought don't fit it. I am hoping the bigger bearing that doesn't fit is just the wrong size. I am going to take my rotor off on Saturday and see if it fits this spindle. If it fits, great, if not I will be in contact with you. You are approximately 1 hour from me so I could come pick them up!

Re: Place to buy new OEM spindles?

hey guys I know this thread is a few months old but do either of you still have a set of stock height spindles for 1 1/4 brakes available do you?

Hi Lime,
I have what I believe the drivers side stock height spindle 1 1/4" spindle. I think it is the 1 1/4 because it uses a bigger bearing than my stock ones.
