Ok guys, What I meant on the A/G body spindles is this. From 78 til 81 or 82 the Cutlass, Malibu platform was still an A body. Then GM converted it to G body. There are differences in the spindles these spindles and the S10 spindles I know the steering arm length is different. I just didnt know if the steering inclination angle was different.

the potential steering geometry problems that can come with using the S-10 joints.


Most agree the S10 swap actually improves the somewhat poor stock camber adjustment problems. That said, the S10 spindles do have a slightly larger turning radius. The caveat here is the stock H-Body spindles have an exceptionally poor turning radius anyway =)
