spindle question
okay as some of you know i have a lifted 2wd truck in the works. and it is in the shop now waiting its turn to get up on the rack and have the suspension tweaked. but i wanted to be sure of one thing
if i am using 88-98 truck spindles then i do need to get 88-98 rotors and calipers as well right? i assumed so but wanted to make sure.

Re: spindle question
I'm doing the same thing. You can get either 5 lug c1500 or 6 lug C2500LD rotors. If 5 lug, you'll want to get 92-98 std cab or 88-98 ext cab rotors. I got 94 rotors, C2500LD calipers and pads. The C2500 caliper has a larger piston.

Re: spindle question
Because there is no currently available 73-87 lift spindle so you have to use an 88-98 spindle

Re: spindle question
Will do. What brand spindles are you getting? I'm going with Fabtech.
