Well I came across someone selling some spindles off of a 03 cobra for a really good price so I picked them up. Are they worth putting on? I kinda just planned on reselling them as a whole kit with my old brakes to someone with a fox. I think they are 8mm wider so is there any benefits to putting them on? I guess wider might be better? Heard you can more easily run brake ducts with the cobra r brakes which I might be going to?

Oh and I have one passenger side 03 cobra control arm, anyone know where I can get the other side?

keep the 03 spindles and sell yours. wider is better.

since you haven't done the gears yet it wouldn't hurt to pick up a 99-up rear end--same deal.

They will change your bumpsteer as well, as the 96+ spindles have lowered (straight) steering arms compared to the 94/95's.

I'm interested in some sn95 spindles if you still have them. PM me if you do.
Thanks
