Southside Machine Tall Spindles

[Ben@SpeedTech]

While we're talking spindles, don't forget to look at the original geometry correcting AFX spindle that Speedtech manufactures. It's 2" taller, has about a 1" ride height drop, has relocated steering arm mounts for better Ackermann and less bumpsteer, are lighter forged aluminum, use C7 heavy duty sealed bearings that won't blow seals or need maintenance servicing, will better handle the abuse of track days and the load of wider tires and will outlast those factory small muscle car bearings, the spindles have integrated C-5 Corvette brake brackets so you can bolt right on anything from a C-5 factory dual piston caliper up to any aftermarket 6 piston kit. To run bigger brakes on many of the steel spindles you have to buy new brake caliper brackets and have your factory disc brake rotors machined down to hubs so you can use the 13" or 14" slip on larger rotors. After adding up all the features and benefits many would say the extra cost for the ATS spindles is worth the value it in the long run.
