Need help with spindles

[turbognx75]

Can anyone tell if my spindles r stock or aftermarket or drop spindles by these pics or explain to me how to check if they r drop spindles...my Gnx rims rubbed bad so I put on the stock wheels and still rubbed but not bad compared to the Gnx rims. Thank you

They don't look like any stock ones I've seen before.

yes those look like S-10 2 inch drops.

Well Charlie that is my problem with my rubbing thank you and dr Frankenstein now I have to find some stock spindles..

How many do you want? The G body and the S-10 use the same steering knuckle so you should be able to get one out of a scrap yard fairly easily, or if you get lucky you might be able to find a set off a 98 up 2 WD 4 Dr blazer which will bolt directly on and give you a dual piston caliper and bigger rotors.

So 98 2 wheel drive blaser will have the correct ride height as the stock spindles but with dual calipers and bigger rotors????huh something to look into thanks Charlie

Sure do. The only draw back is that they use a hub assembly rather than a packable bearing. Go to the stickys in the suspension section and there's 1 about suspension and brake upgrades. Links in the sticky.
