THE BASIS FOR ALL OUR IFS KITS & CHASSIS As you cruise through our new catalog, you’ll notice there is one thing in common about all our IFS kits and our direct-replacement chassis, and that’s the use of the stock GM ’70-81 Camaro front spindle. We’ve really chosen this spindle for the benefit of our customers. Let me point out why we like these front-steer spindles so much! They offer either an 11 or 12-inch GM brake package with 2 15/16-inch diameter caliper pistons, vented rotors on the same balljoints using either the 11 or 12-inch spindle. These very popular balljoints were used by GM on their mid-sized cars from ‘73-88, and on ‘77-88 Caprice/Impala (12-inch disc brakes, most with 5-on-5 bolt pattern) and the ‘70-81 Camaro with 11-inch brakes 5-on-4 3/4 pattern).
So what does this mean to you? The brake options using these spindles are better then anything else over the counter! We use very common, easy-to-find parts at the junk yard or over-the-counter at any parts house! With our product line, you can have either 11 or 12-inch (Delco caliper) disc brakes without having to change a thing! This caliper applies much more pressure on the rotor then later down-sized versions!
This also means to our customers on a budget that buying our economical Stage I kits lets you save plenty (over the complete Stage II)! Every kit is available in a Stage I form! The Stage I allows you to provide spindles, rotors, calipers, balljoints, and rack from a donor car or directly over the counter from any parts house in the USA or Canada! All of our IFS kits are alignable at any frontend shop or GM dealer!
