Billet Spindles
Was there someone who had billet outer spindles for the D44? My nephew broke another one, so that makes a cold forged Toms unit and a Cryo'd GM unit. Guess it's time to try something else. Please let me know where we can pick up a billet unit and if anyone has any experiences with them. Thanks.

Ralph, Chris K. over at Speed Demon had them. May want to give him a call and see if he still has some.
*edit* I just re-read your post. Did you mean the ones in the D44 itself or out at the wheel knuckles?

Tell Chris it's time for a solid axle.

I guess those are out!!! 1.90 shorts and they're twisted....damn. Chris just put a 4500 stall vigilante in the car and it's quite a different animal than with the 3000. First run today...he yanked the wheels about 6 inches before the spindle let go, and it was still on it's way up 
Guess we'll try another cold forged unit, but Moj.....you might be right.
