Dakota spindle advice please (Mr. poorboy Sir?) - 11/16/16 07:46 PM
Hi Gene, or anyone else. I was going to send you a PM but in a effort to help the next smuck as dumb as me I thought a new thread would be best. Reprimands for any breach of etiquette excepted.
I have decided that I am going to have to use dropped spindles on my Dakota sub-frame transplant (in the weeds) and I see that both Belltech and SPI (which is best please?) have a different dropped spindle for the early and late generation 1 Dakotas.
It must be a fairly insignificant difference because as you have mentioned the latter spindles can be changed to the early 5 stud rotors with maybe with a caliper / pad change as well.
My sub-frame is a '92, when I get new dropped spindles should I use the early or late ones?
Thanks, Old Ray.
