3/4 ton to half ton spindles?
Does any body make a drop spindle for a 3/4 ton that will use a 1/2 ton rotor and caliper.
Or get a 1/2 ton spindle and get it reamed to 3/4 t ball joints. Or what options is there. Posted via Mobile Device

www.earlyclassic.com sells the "conversion spindles".
Give them a call. As far as I know,... they are the only company that makes these.

Yep.
They make a set for that says "71-87"? Kinda weird, because the 71-72 trucks use a different upper ball joint and outer tie rod end than the 73-87 trucks. I would call to confirm with Stan this. My guess would be that these work with the 73-87 parts.
