Hello,

Whats the best way to determine if your factory spindles are disc or drum originals?

I have a 1969 Camaro that came with an aftermarket disc brake setup, now I'm looking to upgraade. Disc and drum spindles have different mounting brackets. So how do I tell what spindles I have.

Thanks for the help
Denny

Drum spindles have a "thicker" boss at the upper mounting point. Here's a link to a picture:

Disc spindles has a "thinner" boss at the upper mounting point:

You're welcome.
