There's the solution right there. All the parts to complete the job are at your favorite parts store.

Those spindles will fit your drum spindle ball joints.

Question, are lower balljoints available anymore? About 20 yrs ago when I replaced them on a '71 Chrysler I had, I was told they weren't being made anymore and I had gotten the last pair available (in this area at least).

Just curious.


Aside from rareparts:

Finding NOS is about it. I know as mopar ran out in the 1980's they had more built, I think the quality of those suffered so won't buy them. TRW or Moog if I can find them.

PST still seems to carry them as part of their rebuild kit.

at the time the whole kit from them was cheaper than 2 ball joints from rare parts. might still be.

They were hard to get 10-15 years ago but seem to be readily available these days. I don't know if you'll get any at Napa down the street but I bought a pair on ebay from a suspension supplier a couple of years ago for a reasonable $.
