Not when you can still find the parts in yards for under $100. I would also question the source of those spindles...On an A-body you'd still need upper control arms and lower ball joints. The last set I got for free....



So you can find parts yard stuff for under $100.Are you going to use old rotors,old seals,old bearings,old calipers,old brake pads,old brake hoses and rusted dust shields ? Seems common sense is a thing of the past.



Actually I have been known to find BRAND NEW rotors with NEW bearings, but I do clean the parts. I usually don't get calipers (unless it's a package deal) because the yard cost for calipers plus the caliper kits can be higher than rebuilt calipers plus core.

From your post it seems the idea of rebuilding something might be a thing of the past... Some of us are NOT made of money and will rebuild parts to allow money to be spent on other parts of the car.
