That sway bar will work fine with our system. That spindle is designed to work with 79-86 GM car calipers and rotors.

ok i do that . At Wilwood i asked witch brake kit with GM calipers from 79-86 i have to use and i discribed the car and give them also the part nr off the air-ride kit and drop spindels. But now they ask again witch spindels i am gone use . I think the air-ride spindels are ready to fit late model GM calipers ? Can i give them more info or is this enough . I just wont the right parts the first time , it cost a lot to get the parts in Europe. We gone take the complete street challenge kit but all the parts are the same .
Thanks in advance Darren and for your quick replay

Yes, the spindles are designed to work with late model GM calipers. Just tell them we are using the McGaughy's drop spindle.
