What do you need them for? Do you have the backing plates and drums or the proper disc parts to actually use them? Are your's damaged? Too bad you are in CA, I have a complete drum setup spindles and all that I took off a 289 car on Sunday.

can't tell you for sure, but i think they are 67 pieces, the parts would have been made starting in 66 so they would be ready for the 67 model year. there are a lot of pieces on my car that have 68 engineering numbers. are you trying to make another "baer" front disc kit on your own? i'd be interested to see how it turns out

Those are stock drum or disc brake spindles for a 65-67. Don't know if they're the same for 68 drum, but 68-69 disc spindles are different.

yep they are the same for drum brake applications form 67-69 and disc for 67, if they are in fact 67 spindles, i'm pretty sure they are but not 100% sure, but it sounds like 96 dohc cobra is

no Brian, not brain storming anything this trme, but then again............

anyway, when i ordered my brakes from baer , i must have mentioned that i have a 69 to the sales person(don't remember, took 2 months for them to ship). i was planning on mounting them on '70 spindles(thought i told him i wanted 70's), but he sent a set for 67-69. i had a set of 70 drum spindles powdercoated for the ocassion. now i have to find some 67-69 drum spindles and have them powdercoated. i found a set of 69's i know will work, i'll just buy them(99 cents on e-bay, 1 hour left)

Ronstang, the conversion kit i have requires drum spindles, i currently have stock disc. i guess you could say i'm "upgrading" . if i don't get them, would you be willing to ship yours to me?

why won't the 70 spindles work? i thought the bolt patterns were the same, is it because of the bearings? i think you could probably get different bearings that would work unless the baer hub assembly has the sealed hub type bearings. if that's the case why not just have baer send you the correct parts since you've already had the 70 spindles powder coated. if you really just want to use the "correct" spindle for the system you have now, how much do you want for those 70 spindles?

the hubs are different and it took 2 months to get them to me in the first place. i got the powdercoating done for free and it doesn't really bother me on that loose.
