check out RMS

thanks, bob

I looked at them
takes the large ball joint

says can enlarge the early spindle to make them work

That's what I'm trying to get away from
I can do the work,
Just don't want to buy a tapered reamer to only use it once (or twice/both sides)

Uses 73-up style big balljoint, 72-older A-body spindles will not work
or can be machined to the larger taper -

Check their website. I know they sold them at one point in time. Summit just might not carry/list them.

Sorry I didn't read that carefully enough.

Found it here: http://www.hotchkis.net/geometry_co...arms_6772_dodge_abody_w_small_balljoints.html

Might call Summit or seller of Hotchkis stuff for better deal.

I have the reamer but you will have to pay for it if you'd like to use it and get your money back after you send it back

I can't figure out why you wouldn't want the large ball joint

I'll contact you later, Thanks



SpareParts- was trying to use the spindle i have, cause everything is new, bearings ,
ball joints, and brake parts.

All I want to do, is free up the arm movement
for quicker weight transfer

Got ya. I've made aluminum bushings for stock arms before, worked great on a budget. Unless you are also having trouble getting a good drag race alignment, then adjustable is the ticket. I make my own arms
