OK, stock 61 spindles with drum brakes?
Are you looking at upgrading to disk brakes?

Did a brake upgrade from cpp brakes last year with new rotors and all the other brake parts, and drop spindles when we bought the truck it had know front suspension just the upper and lower a arms, I converted it to run on coil over shocks. Now I want to put it on air suspension, so need to find a ball joint that will fit, in the bottom of the spindles which are are on the ordinal a arms.thanks for your time Pete. any advise would be great
