Does anyone currently make light weight stock replacement E body Spindles? or has any one had luck trimming their stock ones up? It just seems like a huge piece of metal that needs to go on a diet

I'm sure there are places that can stand to be dieted safely, but I've seen too many "lightened" suspension parts that look like suicide attempts.
Got a good picture? I may be able to spot something.

The late model FMJ knuckles are significantly lighter than the early knuckles. It appears that someone at Mopar finally took a class on FEM and used it on those knuckles. The weight savings isn't huge, maybe 1.5 lbs per side but it is already done for you.

i had the spindles off my car recently (FMJ spindles) and they didn't seem a like an excessively heavy part given their purpose...

another question, with the FMJ spindles being a bit taller than the A body spindles, does that equate to slightly less negative camber being dialed into the suspension?

Stock spindle is only 5 lbs.

Thanks guys, I would have figured a lot more than 5 lbs. I still need to lose about 200 pounds, serching

How about the driver?

R.

I guess I could find 10-15 lbs there

Have you removed the safety crash bars out of the doors? They're pretty heavy.

Well, you can get FG e-body bumpers, fenders, lexan windows, FG dash...What's the interior look like?

If I were the track/racing venue attorney, I would make sure that "modifications to suspension parts constitute participatory liability assigned to the driver/owner in a crash" appears in the release form.
If it's neither OEM nor SEMA they will blame you if it fails.

The solution: blend and radius any metal removal and repaint!

I took a pound out of each spindle on my car. Then got yelled at on here. I run wilwoods so no need for all that metal for caliper bracket

Shame on you Ray. Make sure you let the track owners know, wherever you race.

I already have FG hood, fenders , trunk lid, doors valances, lexan windows, tube k member, dash is a 5" x 8" piece of aluminum. Only tach and oil gauge. 1 seat no interior

Whats it weigh?

About 2990 without me

When I was trying to lose weight on my 70 challenger I lost like 300 lbs by building an A body

And BOOM! goes the dynamite...........

I see he already has FG doors, but FYI to those contemplating crash beam removal, it is 15 lbs. per door.

but she's so sexy! And after having it for 34 years my wife would kill me. However I could picture myself throwing this combo in a little Daytona
