---------------------------------------------Originally posted by UnusualFabricationIf its not tight then it could loosen up with time not to mention its just not as strong loose as it is when its tight. Instead of drilling though and using a dowel or roll pin why not drill and tap the side of the spindle for a set screw, similar to that of aftermarket steering shaft when you first install them. Just drill though into the tapered shaft enough to engage the set screw and lock the tapered shaft in place. Use locktite to keep it from backing out.--------------------------------------------- The only issue i see with doing a set screw type, would be aluminum spindles. Like mine for my ram are aluminum, and drilling and tapping that shitty pot aluminum probably wont give really good threads that i would want to use to hold it in place. I took an old spindle off the shelf today, and tried some things, and im really liking the drilling the hold through the side, and using a rollpin. I machined a shaft to fit tightly into the spindle, that had a bearing cup welded onto the top of it, then tightened it into the spindle, and drilled a 3/8 hole through it, and tapped a roll pin in place, and it auctually works really well. I tapped the pin back out to see how easy it would all dissassemble and it was still good. This also let me take the bearing cup back out, and put the stock control arm back in the tapered hole, and it snugged down just fine again like stock. Im probably going to build me a set of these right now and see how i like them, test them through the summer and maybee start selling kits like this.... Taylor
