Identifying Drop Spindles (which bearings?)

[Harv]

hey guys, my cutlass came with 2" drop spindles installed but i need help trying to identify which drop spindles they are. The previous owner told me that they are not S-10 spindles and are "olds cutlass drop spindles" are there other brand besides belltech that makes drop spindles?

If they are belltech, do i need different bearings than OEM? I recall reading that somewhere.

Thanks,
Harvey

check the bearings for their part numbers

yeah. that was my next task. i made the mistake of not checking them when i had it apart the first time.

the s10 pickup and the g-body platform use the same drop spindle. the 98-2005 blazer spindle is different. there are a few companies that make the s10/g-body spindle. belltech , djm , aim to name a few. the blazer drop spindle belltech is your only choice.

belltech spindles usually have their logo cast into the spindle
