I tore down my 69 cutlass front end and my mark for left right came off ...now i can't tell what spindle is what? it has drum brakes up front and although they appear 'identical" in every way, the casting numbers look different? beside shocks, I'm the first person to take the front apart.

are they the same?

 

yes, the spindle itself is the same

 

i just wanted to be sure ...I DON'T want to be busting those new ball-joints and stuff apart to swap them if they were !

thanks !
