      Hotchkis A-arms

      I want to use the complete hotchkis TVS kit, But it notes that I must use B-Body spindles with the control arms ,what is a B-Body and what years do I look for, Do I use everything on the spindle (rotor,caliper,etc) Is there police packages or large brake packages I should look for? MAN) the price we pay !

      Hey moly, we have been selling a ton of Hotchkis. If you do not want to run B body spindles, there are other options like ATS, or using another brand or control arms. Were doing a 67 Chevelle in the shop today, and just finished a Camaro. Why don't you call me and we can talk through your needs.

      B-bodies are the full sized cars. Impala, Bonneville, etc.

      Before you spend any money use the search function and check out the B spindle swap. It`s got a lot of issues with them,one of which is that the steering arms are longer and lower which slows the steering ratio,screws up the ackerman and doubles the already bad bumpsteer! It`s an idea whos time has passed,there are MUCH better options out there today. Mark SC&C

      And your question was about B-body spindles... Which like Marcus is trying to tell you, are junk....



      BTW, My ATS spindles and SC&C arms were supposed to be delivered today, but UPS claims I wasn't home to sign!
