Help me identify my spindle

A bodies never had 11" drum brakes, Period. They had 9" and 10" drums and Kelsey-Hayes discs up until 1972. From '73-'76 they had the same drum choices but the discs were 10.87" slider caliper units. Here's my thinking. We have a frustrated member who may or may not give up the hobby based on answers he may or may not get here. He already knows that he has 9" drums on his car and needs 10" drum spindles to use the disc brake kit he has chosen, so he gets a lot more credit in my eyes than a dipstick ebag seller that obviously doesn't know what he is selling and only cares about the money. I'm sorry that my attempt to provide an answer caused your panties to get in a wad because I did not observe the proprieties and stand by and wring my hands and gnash my teeth and ask more questions until a frustrated member abandoned all hope because every time he asked something, more information was needed so the gurus could pick one from column A and emerge with their reputations untarnished. I have a simple rule of thumb when it comes to questions. Answer it or say "I don't know" and stay out of it. You may want to consider doing likewise Oklacarcollecto because your sniping is starting to really get on my nerves...

Did you miss this part in my first post? "There was never 11" brakes used on our A-bodies from MaMopar." As I said the seller stated that it fit 10" or 11" so I wouldn't make an assumption until I knew the facts of what the seller had sent. I make it a practice to know the facts before saying anything. I have seen too many people get screwed up by people jumping to conclusions and saying things that were not facts.

The thing that is most likely to cause frustration in the hobby is getting wrong information and buying parts based off of it. I have bought quite a few cars because people were told wrong, they spent their money, ended up with components that wouldn't work so they got discouraged and sold the car. As a matter of fact, I bought two last week because of it.

I believe 9" brakes were discontinued with the 1973 models and 10" or disc were the only options left.

I strive for as accurate of an answer as I can give so I ask questions to make sure that I am going to give the correct information instead of giving wrong information. If that bothers you deal with it because that is the way I roll and always have.

You choose to continue your little nitpicking because you had to send me a pm whining and crying about being butthurt when I disagreed with you over using the wrong brake drums that won't center on the register and is much wider than the shoes or you can be a man and move on. If you can't man up try using the ignore button.
