Not sure if he`ll take anything off for you-it`s pretty much a u-pull it place which is fine by me. I`m, going back soon to find those cudas and get some more parts for my Duster.

Always looking for a pair of 1973 C-Body spindles? :bigsmile: :wave:

Just sayin.... :dunno: :lol:

I have spindles, rotors and calipers off a 74 New Yorker.  I was going to try to adapt them to my Challenger.  Are they any good?
Yes I own a 1972 Dodge Challenger Convertible T/A S/E with a 440 Six Pak. Can it get any more wrong?

Very cool find!  Don't get to see a salvage yard like that very often now a days.
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

Well they can be made to work but the upper ball joint taper is too big and would require a sleeve.  The hole for the lower ball joint need to be machined slightly for the bolt holes.
The 73 spindles , the upper taper is correct and requires nothing.
See here for dimensions for both C-Body spindles.

Gary Winkel is the guy in Milford NH, lot`s of b-body stuff but knows what it`s worth. I went back for an a-body  k-frame and some other stuff but after getting some prices I`m no longer that impressed with the place. I can get a v8 k-frame from craigs list for the same price or cheaper and it`s off the car not buried in mud and leaves and badly rusted. I may try one more trip back before winter to try and haggle prices again but not sure when. If anybody wants to give it a shot- Ayottes in Oxford Maine.
