spacers with s10 spindles and rae GTA wheels????

[lib87t]

Im getting a set of GTA wheels , I know with my stock front brakes I can use Rear GTAs up front with 5/8 spacer and longer studs, BUT I plan on doing s10 front brake swap soon and was wonder if I will still need the spacer up front ??????

I believe the track width is going to end up being the same, meaning you'll probably still need spacers. My brother did this conversion a few months back. I'll see if I can find out some info and dig up some pics.

Use GM B-car spindles and you can use GTA rears on front w/o spacers. Also get better camber curve and 12" rotor.

This appears to be an blazer brake swap, are the B-body spindles a sealed bearing unit also ?
