ATS Spindle Thread Split

[TitoJones]

I've been out of town for a few days, but it looks like my minions have handled the dirty work for me.
Marcus- I'll get with you on the dealer program asap.
Chevymike- Looks good so far, but I'm going to aquire all those parts and mock it up to be 100% sure it will work.

ChevyMike-
We mocked it up this morning, and I'm sad to say that they will not work. The rotor offset is too deep to clear the brake bracket. If possibly there is a C5 rotor that is 12" in diameter it would work, but not with an f body rotor.

Okay, that's a bummer but at least I know. Thanks for all the time you guys put in to check this. I am still very interested in the spindle so I might just swap rotors and use the calipers/cages I have.

On a different note, so I completely understand correctly, if I have GW upper arms, stock lower arms but have NOT done the Guldstrand mod, the tall spindles will help with the camber/caster curve and not have problems with ball joints, binding or anything else, correct? Thanks again.

ChevyMike-
Yep, you have it all correct. Sorry about the 12" LS1 swap fitment, I was hoping it would work out.

Tom,

How much does the front roll center height raise if you raise it say, a 1/2" more?

And is there any way to mount the "pdqCBB" front homemade caliper bracket that mounts the 1988, 'Vette 13" front rotor and big single piston caliper to do this stuff CHEAP!!!

Ok, I know my roll in all of this. You guys design and I buy. So how much longer is it? Also Marcus, you had replied to my question about what suspension setup I should use on my f-body since I'm going to use these spindles how long will it take to come up with the right combo mixing your products with these spindles? Thanks.
