Fabricated A-Body spindle ideas and discussion

The S197 and S550 stuff seems super easy to source. RockAuto has black S197 four piston calipers for $116 a piece, rotors from $41, pads from $10, and hubs from $63 (sometimes get what you pay for with pads/rotors/hubs), but this can be done for a very reasonable price.

Yep, prices are pretty good. And the S550 6 piston calipers can be had in black for $205/$212.

Not clear on the hubs though. The S197 hubs are for a pin style spindle, we would want a cartridge style hub off a S550, either the rear with a bolt or the front off a magna-ride car.
