I'll take them if you decide to ship. I'm just up the road in Las Vegas.

Bret, I don't have trouble shipping them but they're really heavy and would have to be shipped in 2 boxes.

It'll be a few days before I'm able to get to them. In the meantime, I'd still prefer to sell them local.

60-62
63-70
71-72

Hi, I believe they're 71-72, although I am not 100% certain. I bought them off a member here on the boards. Is there a way I can measure or check?

Yeah, I have to probably double box as well. Hence why I didn't want to ship. But if I have to.....

Take them to your local auto parts store.
Find out the correct upper ball joint or tie rod for your spindles and you will know what year truck they were made for.
Just trying to save you an unhappy buyer.

I bought a set of new 71-72 drop spindles for $100.
But after changing upper and lower ball joints outer tie rods and conversion tie rod sleeves to make them fit my '69,... It wasn't such a cheap purchase.

Re: 1969-72 McGaughy's 2.5" drop spindles w 5 bolt discs

That's why the 63-70 ones are the way to go. It was more cost effective for me to buy drop spindles and completely rebuild my front suspension for my 68 than it would have been to run. 71 spindles and get the balljoints. Sorry to thread jack.

Bolt pattern on rotors is 5 x 5". Holding off on shipping. Thanks.
