Good Day!

Anybody know what length UCA is needed for a gbody with Bbody tall spindles?

I sure would appreciate it! I am trying to order some arms and don't want to mount them up and find out they are the wrong length!

Thanks!
 
Can somebody please measure the arms they are using with the B body spindle swap?

Thanks!
 
I believe Hotchkiss as well as Global West makes the correct arms for that conversion. Don't know the length but the sites should advise what exactly works with what.
 
You do know with the b-body spindle that your bump steer is twice as bad as stock ... This swap is no longer recommended. I'm not trying to tell you what to do, just trying to let you know ahead of time.

If you get spindles from a 2wd Blazer with the alum calipers, you can get an adapter bracket for the C5 brakes or just use the S10 which is an awesome upgrade in itself. As an added benefit, these are direct replacement for the g-body spindles and don't require the special upper arm.
