Granada or Mustang spindles?

Anyone actually ever seen a V-8 spindle break?

I've seen six cylinder spindles go, but never a V-8 spindle.

Yes, under performance conditions.

I've seen six cylinder spindles go, but never a V-8 spindle.

i've seen pics of spindles gone bad but never in person, however i have seen some that have been pretty badly bent and wondered how they didn't just snap, and once i even welded a bearing race to the spindle from a bearing going bad. the kicker was that it gave no signs it was going bad, it just happened.
