The difference in the BJ on the

63-70 taper being the smallest

71-72 taper is bigger than the 63-70

73-70 taper being the biggest out of all of them

Justin

The tapers are different

I know that but what do each one measure to know which spindles they are when you run into some.

Reason I ask is because I have two sets of drop spindles but don't know what they fit. I was hoping maybe by determining the size of the bj I could figure that out. I know the bottom taper hole is 7/8" and then it tapers.

We dont measure spindles like that here, we have fit parts that we measure these spindles with. If you want to determine what spindles you have i will give you all the parts numbers as followed to run down to your parts store and determine what you have. Keep in mind its not just the ball joints but the outter tie rod tapers are different also

1963-70 upper balljoint fa480 lower fa481 outer tierod es350-L
1971-72 upper balljoint fa683 lower fa1014 outer tierod es415-r
1973-88 uper balljoint fa903 lower fa1014 outer tierod es409r

Hope this helps, there is no easy way to measure these, fit parts will give you the answer. Thanks

We have cpp parts in stock and great prices and fast shipping.All the three that matter!!!!!!

Is it possible to run a wider wheel with these spindals?

creep · 04-28-2012, 01:02 PM

I have a 63 with a raised crossmember and DJM drop spindles SSBC 1.25" brakes for a 73-87. Will the CPP spindles bring the wheels in more for some extra fender clearance? Are they 2.5" drop?

Justin,
I sent you a PM a few days ago for some pricing on spindals and springs and shipping to 31763.

YES! This is the biggest perk of this spindle as no other spindle in the country moves the wheels inboard 3/4" of an inch per side.....

You can as it moves the wheels in 3/4" of an inch per side against the factory drum brakes.

Scottshotrods · 05-03-2012, 02:17 PM

This also add here that all of Cpp dropped spindals they make for these trucks will move the wheel in 3/4 per side.

The sale is still going on for sure.

creep · 05-14-2012, 02:47 PM

Cool. Now I just have to measure and see if my truck would still lay out with a 2.5" spindle instead of the 3" I'm using now.

68crum · 05-14-2012, 04:00 PM

Just ordered a set! Can't wait to get them in!!

Looks like my truck should still lay frame with these spindles so I think I'm gonna pull the trigger and call tomorrow to order a pair.
