Specifically designed for the \"King and Link Pin\" suspension, this forged steel component serves as the structural foundation for your right-front wheel assembly. As a \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"290\"\u003estock-height\u003c\/b\u003e spindle, it maintains the original suspension geometry and factory ground clearance, making it the ideal choice for purists and restoration enthusiasts looking to keep their vehicle's ride quality exactly as it was when it left the factory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eThis spindle is responsible for housing the wheel bearings and providing the mounting points for the brake backing plate and drum.
