The spindles are different and your fucked if you need to get the back wheel off.Unless you own a lift and pull the shocks and bags.

Everybody sells the spindles.You can get them anywhere.If your going to door it you can't run but a eighteen so I would lay it out on twentys and cut the hood.You can raise the clip but it looks wrong.

Maybe consider changing them to s-10 spindles and brakes that is what I did on my cutty. Had to play around with the ball jopint size but I got it.

Yeah the ass end is a bitch. I just put the car on jack stands and the axle on a jack. Then I disconnect the shocks and lower the axle until I can take the wheels off. It's a bitch, but be patient.

If it's a caprice wagon it has the bigger brakes and there is a reason for that.I don't think my spindles were even two hundred so I would just buy spindles.Cuttys are a bit lighter and have the smaller metric brakes so it's no big deal.

you can buy spindles about anywhere for around twohundred bucks , i just saw a set on ebay for a bill , yes the rear wheels suck to take off but you don't have to worry about anyone stealing them. lol

Wagons share the same front brakes as every B/D-body derivitive except the 9C1 police package, and even that is just a caliper width/thicker pad difference... Out back the wagons get a different rear end and larger diameter drum brakes.

I bought my Bell Techs from Summit Racing. Think I paid $299.00 for them. AIM makes spindles too but you know about what they would be worth...
I haven't seen one of these B bodies doored yet. Will it be the first or does someone have pics of one doored?
