Get them next time you are in the US from CB perf. for $100
Sorry for the hijack but are dropped spindles for a late bay any cheaper over there than they are here/england?
English companies are looking for stupid money for them.

Haven't you herd? You guys are getting ripped off big time! Look up Nate at Wagons West in Salem Oregon opr Bus Boys in Redding, Ca, or even Wolfgangs in Redding, Ca.

Get a spare set of standard spindles and drop them into your local engineering shop and have them chop them and weld the two together, any of the bay dropped spindles I have seen are done that way.

Nice one Britt. I'll have a gander there now.
Cheers


@Riggsi- I always thought they had to be cast? Something to think about.

I think the T2D dropped spindles for a bay are flipped, some are welded...
