      Thanks to ATS.

      The FedEx gods smiled on me today and delivered my spindles just as my wife was heading out the door to go to work. Signed, sealed and delivered. The box was in good condition, no problems with FedEx. The spindles are about the most impressive piece of hardware I have ever seen. I feel like a rock star now.

      There are a couple of features to them that I'm puzzled about. On the back is a coupling to plug something into. And there is a thin metal bracket hanging off one side (I'm assuming this is a necessary component to accommodate the C5 brakes and I'll learn about it in a few weeks when Noel delivers my system. If anyone can chime in here I'd appreciate it. Tyler?

      Lastly...some great customer service from the boys out in the desert. You guys are first class. I can't wait to get them on my car. Here are a few pics including the Del-A-Lum bushings I had installed.

      Pretty sure there is a capability to mount a wheel speed sensor for ABS. Not sure about the other gizmo.

      How did the DelALum install go? I am painting my upper and lowers in a week or so and will be installing mine shortly. Any helpful advice on the install? The spindles and uppers look great by the way.......

      NvrDun71....I had the local Midas install them. They charged me $50 to remove the Poly's and push in these new ones. $50 for all 4. Worth the money.

      Ahh.....Sounds good man. For $50 bucks ya can't lose, especially since they saved you the trouble of removing the poly bushings. Good luck with it man, keep us updated w/ some pics when you start throwing the front suspension together.

      Tony-

      I'm glad you got them without any issues.
      In the instruction sheet (its bundled with the catalog) it explains the pig tail and the grey bracket.

      Basicly, the white round cartridge is a shipping place holder only. You remove the pigtail (wheel speed sensor plug) and clip it to the grey bracket. The bracket must remain on the spindle to maintan the correct hub offset.

      Enjoy your new spindles, you ROCK STAR!!!!
