ATS Spindle Thread Split

[TitoJones]

This thread is to explain all the design features, and questions we've recieved regarding our new upright, called the AFX Spindle.


Features include:

Fits A, F and X body cars (68-72 Chevelle, 67-69 Camaro, and 68-74 Nova)

Ultra light (2.9lbs), exceptionally strong forged 6061 T6 aluminum

1.4" taller than stock* for improved handling (gives greater camber gain with minmal tire wear)

Revised steering geometry for near zero bumpsteer (utilizes a bolt on steering arm. This means you can use this spindle with any of the aftermarket rack and pinion kits, including Flaming River, BRP, and others.)

7/8" drop for a lowered look, without causing rim to steering arm clearence issues related with dropped spindles (usually happens with over 1.5" drop)

Uses a sealed C6 Corvette hub assembly with integrated wheel speed sensors perfect for retrofitting an anti-lock braking controller to the chassis, or for installing an advanced traction control device. (A few additional features of using these bearing packs include bigger bearings for open road racing, as well as the ability to use a C5/C6 Corvette rear bearing pack for someone crazy enough to attempt an all-wheel-drive conversion.)

Multiple brake options including Baer's new 6 pistion mono block calipers. (Any brake manufacturer that sells a C5/C6 Corvette package can be used on this spindle. Anything from factory Z06 style, all the way to AP racing calipers will bolt on with zero mods.)

* also available in stock height for use with any geoemtry and control arm configuration. (This means you can use our 'stock' style spindle with the G mod, the DSE coil over mounts, and any tubular control arm, ie GW, DSE, ST, ect.)

These are not remade SED spindles. We started with a clean slate to make this product. It was executed so well, that we got the Mark Stielow seal of approval, and he will be testing a set on the re-aquired Thrasher Camaro.

Available in late June, and should be within the price range our our competition.
