I've searched through most of the site and found just about everything except PICS showing the mods to a stock spindle for mounting 1LE brakes.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks.

 

Pics and how-to in the following link (Make sure you click on the links in orange which furnish more pics--actually I think they're from AndyZ28's CD, mentioned below):

Thanks James. I thought I'd hear from you.
I've got that link in my files. Excellent article too. I was looking for before and after pictures. Sort of like "spindle mods for dummies". However with a stock spindle on the bench in front of me and the photos from the article I should be alright.
Now I've just got to source out the 1LE hardware. From what I've researched, NAPA or just about any parts store carry the components.

 

The angle was a bit confusing to me in the beginning, but the following pic made sense of things:

At any rate, it's not rocket science as you'll see. I modded the spindles completely by hand, off car, with a hacksaw and grinder to even the cuts up some.

Auto parts stores will be able to order pads, rotors, calipers, but I doubt that you'll find the carriers or adapter bracket. Spohn, however, sells them, IIRC.

That's the picture I was looking for!
No trepidation here regarding the modification. I'm just big on gathering all the information I can before I tackle a project.
I probably hit up Spohn for what I can't find at NAPA. He offers excellent service.
Thanks.
