I got an email response from CPP on the availability of the the spindles. He said they will be ready to ship in April.

I can't wait!

If your in a hurry and want spindles with hubs instead of grease able bearing for c5 brakes. Why dont you just do s10 blazer spindles or s10 blazer drop spindles then s10 blazer hubs with c5 brake caliper bracket,c5 calipers and rotors.

Think there was alot of hubbub about them a few years ago or so, some not so good some of which was from competitors. Some valid points were made IIRC, no real suspension improvements and possible quality issues, but it's nice to see them come to production for g-bodies finally. Look forward to hearing feedback from those that buy them. Would need to do more homework but using a Blazer spindle might have the same benefits for cheaper even when adding a bracket, I believe unless I'm missing something.

That thread is several years old so quite possibly some changes or improvements are made to the product.
