changing spindles

I am going to install QA1 front coil-over kit. From what i understand do to ball joint size i need to use a 73+ drop spindle. I have a 71 with front disk. Will this be a straight swap?

Re: changing spindles

Yes. Qa1 front requires 73+ Spindle. Also you will need two73+ outer tie rod ends to fit the spindle. Are you trying to reuse the stock brakes?

Re: changing spindles

Depending on your budget. I went with the 73+ cpp modular spindle. I really liked the wilwood pro spindles in aluminum but couldn’t justify the $
