Does anybody know if the fornt spindles can be swapped from 4th gen over to 3rd?

I want to have the 4th gen front to be able to put 4th gen wheels without adapters, is this possible by just installing the 4th gen spindles or do i have to put in the whole kmember??

No way man. The 4th gens use a hub mounted rotor, not a spindle. Your only option that I know of is the adapters.

It was totally re-designed for the 4th gens. Nothing will fit. Yes you could make it fit but would you?

Also, 4th gens have coilover front suspension, which would make it pretty much impossible even to try and switch to the 4th gen hub/spindle setup.
