Spindle Question

70 Cutlass Supreme Question.... Is the front spindle the same between a drum and a disc brake setup?

Thanks in advance
Doug

The factory spindles are different. But the drum spindle can be modified to work for the disc brakes. Joe P. has a couple good writeups on this and the parts needed for the changeover. Try the search option for drum to disc converstion and see if you can find them. John

Thanks for the info, I am going to convert to disc brakes on the front and this is one less (small) expense I won't have to worry about.
