Need a stock spindle 1968 C10 pickup
Hi guys. I'm in search of a drivers side stock drum brake type spindle. You'd think with everyone doing disk brake conversions and drop spindles there'd be a ton of stock one's laying around.
Any leads? I'm even having trouble finding anything new. Thanks, Steve |

Greens Restoration in Cameron, TX. He's close to you and I would be shocked if he didn't have one.
As a matter of fact, I bought drivers side upper and lower control arms from him and he left the spindle attached...so I know he has others. That would mean I have 3 drivers spindles but I'm in Dallas. |

Re: Need a stock spindle 1968 C10 pickup
Thank you for the responses! I am waiting for a response from a guy here on craigslist Austin.
If he doesn't come through, I'll definitely try the guys in Cameron.(sounds like a fun little road trip) Grumpy old man- Thank you. I hope to find it closer, but if i can't i'd try to make it worth it to you for the trouble of sending it. |

Hopefully today i'm going to get it back on the road. But know anybody around Austin who wants to freshen up the front end? I think i'll order a tie rod and ball joint kit and get it installed. I think I talked to the guys at Speedy Align a while back. They might want to do it, but looking for recommendations too. Thanks again! |

Re: Need a stock spindle 1968 C10 pickup
I moved your inquiry over to the parts forum for your quest. Good luck on your search
