What kind of spindles do I need for 5 stud hub? I have 4 now.

You posted your question in the "Drag Racing" section; if you're building a race only car, Wilwood offers a single piston caliper and 5 bolt hub setup to fit the stock Vega spindle. If this is for a street/strip or street only, the spindles/hubs/brakes from a 2wd S-10 is the simplest swap.

Double post, too late to delete.

There is another option, but this is "High End" serious parts [at that expected price point, YES LOTS of $$$$!] but they start with your stock spindle and modify it for bigger brakes and upgrades are/were available. You are looking in the $2G neighbourhood for both ends to start. Now this does address a couple of S10 issues that arise but also leaves a few Vega/Monza [and friends] issues with you. If you give us a little more we can focus or answers to your desired finish line. Harry http://www.aerospacecomponents.com/imag ... ctions.pdf

I have a 75 monza drag car, would like to stop quicker stock dont last long, the s10 uppers and lowers do not match up holes are bigger. Will the wildwood fit monza?

My bad; the Wilwood front brake setup for Vega/Monza has been discontinued. If you want to do the S-10 spindle swap, you have 2 choices-
1- modify your control arms to take the S-10 ball joints(uppers can be ground out, lowers will require welding in a sleeve)
2- buy the Bob Gumm ball joint adapter sleeves.

Thank you very much.

Went with Bob Grum kit, there on there way. My monza has a 400 smb chev engine, with ford 8.8 rear end. with 2 speed trans. thanks for all the help, picked up a lot of tips here.

Hi guys, I'm back after a few years . I retired from Pratt & Whitney jet engines after 39 years . Got a '75 Monza 2+2 I am dragging . Anyway, I just purchased upper and lower A arms from AJE and a brake and spindle kit from Southwest with Wildwood calipers . Here's the problem , the lower arms had a shallow spring pocket compared to my Monza with deep . After I lowered it to the floor it sat about 4 inches higher but with 6 degrees camber . I was using 4 cylinder coils and it sat low like I wanted . So, I cut 1 1/2 coils and it sat O.K. Still camber no good . So, what now about the S10 spindles ? The kit listed them as S10 and mid eighties G body . Same as Bob Gumm's kit . I E-mailed Gumm's site but no answer . So I yanked everything off and returned it to stock for last Sun racing . Help ! I'd send some pics if I knew how . The spindles side by side look like different angles . Thanks .

In reply too your PM, I have not done this swap so I am not sure. Posting pics is easy if you have the pics resized so they can be downloaded here. That is a lot of camber change, are the AJE arms specific to the L and R side? Is it positive or negative camber?
