Disk vs Drum Spindles....
Does anybody know if the spindles for disk are the same as the drum spindles??? Is LMC just BS'n when they say you HAVE to have disk brakes if you use their drop spindles or will the drums fit them too? Any help appreciated guys!

Disc spindles are different from drum spindles.

Re: Disk vs Drum Spindles....
Funny how we choose to second-guess the folks who are selling what we want.
Early Classic Enterprises is my resource. I trust what they say. I can understand questioning LMC's sales associates, because they are just that. When I had a question about wiring that I bought from them several years ago, I ended up talking to some girl who didn't know "siccum from c'mere" about what I was asking. At least we have vendors on here who walk the walk and talk the talk. They will not tell you what ain't true.
