Spindles 71 4x4

Does anyone know where i can find some new spindles for my 71 Blazer. Ive seen a few listed online but they seem to be for 72 or 73 and up. I have the Dana 44 and its the 10 bolt axle. It's the small bearing. I tried finding some used ones but they all seem to be a little pitted. At this point i think i rather pay more for the new ones and just get this section of my truck done.

Thanks in advance guys!

You can use the bigger ones too. Best approch would be to get a donor axel and swap in the bigger 297 Ujoint axels wile your at it too

Re: Spindles 71 4x4

Thanks OldCreek and Burt4x4 i tried parts mike but they did not seem to have what i needed.They tried but could not find. I came across Wild horses four wheel drive and they had it. They specialize in Broncos. I guess its the real early model dana 44 axle that i have. Just got them today.
Thanks.

Why not place a wtb in the classified section.

....because you have to be a paid supporter to post in the classifieds. Simply asking here like this is borderline. As long as all of the responses are for vendors/parts houses, it's ok, but there can't be any personal offers.

The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
