Location: Watertown South Dakota | I have a 57 Desoto here with the front spindles missing. Instead of trying to find stock spindles, I would like to find later disc types. But, I have read about different height spindles changing the geometry. Are there any later ones that are bolt ons? |

| search on it, there are some that work, requires grinding some parts which i dont like. Spindles should be cheap from Big M. I think it changes the geometry a bit also.
I would go stock with Scarebird or AAJ. |

Location: Watertown South Dakota | Thanks, I have looked at the scarebird brackets and that seems like a good price if I put stock spindles back on. I was hoping to find replacement disc spindles that were correct in height. I will do some more research. Thanks for your reply. |

Location: NorCal | Many have used the later F, M, J-body spindles and disc brakes. The spindles aren't the original height but the front can be aligned with them.
