Default Quick 5 lug question

Was out at the junk yard today, sn95 spindles are all the same correct ? As in v6 to v8 I understand the 96+ are wider but want to be sure spindles and caliper brackets from a v6 would be ok

snagged them yesterday at lunch alex,




eh, figure sand blast and paint, the ball joint is a slight issue as far as im aware you need to shim the fox one or press in an sn95, which is why i need to contact dave and see what he is putting in his control arms. should bolt right up to the strut as far as im aware, i will call qa1 and see if i need to order sn95 coil overs for that.

Overall it's not terrible from all the write ups i have read on it, just a handful of little stuff you have to accommodate for and it allows for a wider variety of wheel choice as opposed to running a 5 lug rotor w/taper roller bearings. I like the one piece hub design as well.


Edit: a lot of good info here by MM http://www.maximummotorsports.com/st...232c13d560b954
