To answer your question if you buy the current dropped spindle from CPP you will have to have moog upper ball joints or you will have issues no matter if your current ball joints are new or not...the problem is in the taper...im just amazed that the moog joint is different from one from advance auto parts or o'relliys

I guess it's hard for me to believe that Western Chassis (a company that's been making drop spindle longer that just about anyone),... can't get it correct.
The 71-72 spindle and the 73-87 spindle both take the same LOWER ball joint.
The only difference is the UPPER ball joint.
Why would Western make the upper taper "Moog specific" and not the lower taper?
I still think something got boxed incorrectly.
Or something major has changed with Western Chassis manufacturing process.
