They will interchange, but there are two different forging nos. The
'69 and earlier no. begins with a 20 and the'70 and later no. begins with a 28. The filet right behind the outer bearing location is more gen-
erous on the later parts. I assume it's a strength issue, although I
never heard of there being a problem with either one. Usually, a forging no. isn't visable on the disc brake spindles.

To bad you are so far away, I have the complete 10 inch drum setup from my 71 scamp just sitting here that I would gladly give away for free.

That's why I am asking , if he gets the 67-72 spindle then he is going to have to either bore out the upper balljoint hole , change the upper control arm OR I think dr. diff sells an adaptor sleeve ????

They had put big ball joints in the upper A-arms.I got new tube style a-arms now..they change it over to have the big bolt pattern. But I still need a set of 67-72 10" drum spindles.because thats what I bought the new strange brakes to fit.

And yes John I have the reamer to bore out the hole for the big ball joint.
