Default 53-54 Passenger Car Spindle Uprights

Hello all. I am trying to locate a pair of front passenger car uprights from a 1953 or 1954 chevy to put on my '58 corvette to lower it slightly. I am having a really hard time tracking down the parts. Does anyone have a part number or have any for sale?

I am only able to find the spindles and not the uprights. Thanks!

A few of us have made that change. Finding the 53-54 spindle supports can be "difficult".

Recommend you do a search in some of the old time wrecking yards (may have to by the whole front end, or even the whole car)...

If you want to read more forum threads on it, do a search for " spindle supports ".

Good luck,
Plasticman

Bumping this up again to see if anyone has those damn spindle supports! haha

Also, are any other supporting modifications needed to the front steering to run these? like steering arms from the 53-54 as well or just swap out the supports and you are good to go?
