mu buddy, Fred is putting a 72 Camaro front clip on his 56 Chevy pickup. He has 72 Camaro A arms, new ball joints ect for a 72. He needs spindles so the question is: what year Camaro spindles interchange?  I'm thinking 70-78 should be the same. Anybody have an interchange manual? thanks, Larry

70 to 81 Camaro and Firebird, 75 to 79 Nova and clones. 73 to 77 Chevelle, Monte, and clones are a direct interchange. If he wants bigger brakes, 12" spindles from GM full size are a bolt on, but have a 5 by 5" bolt pattern. You can install 94 Camaro 12"rotors on the B body spindles for a 5 by 4 3/4" bolt pattern, also a bolt on with the right mix of bearings.
Welcome to hell. Here's your accordion.
