I would never know if someone burns a bearing and needs one.

Did you know you can sell parts on the forum, there is a parts section? You need to be a premium member. If you have some parts, rather than throwing them away, sell them. The parts do not need to be in perfect condition, you just need to represent their condition accurately. I've sold a variety of parts, including an old radiator.

Heck yes they are worth keeping, selling, or giving away. Not everyone wants to lower a 3/4t. In fact many are still used as trucks. Those are perfect candidates for an owner who wants to go to disc brakes on a '70 or earlier

I post that type of stuff on my local C10 club page for “trade for a cold 6 pack”.

Mainly because someone CAN use it, and I like beer. Met some cool people that way, plus the karma does seem to come back around.

Thanks to all for the input. Think I'll clean them up, box them and hang on to them for awhile.

Any disc brake spindle is worth keeping, for you, or someone else...in future. Drum brake spindles, not worth much...IMO...

Re: Stock 1972 C20 Spindles Worth Keeping?

I think all good OEM parts are worth keeping. Or at least not worth scrapping. I'd offer up anything for free before dumping as junk. I have a '70 K/20 Dana44 front end someone gave me. I don't need it. I might some day need parts toward my '72 Dana44 since all but the outer parts are the same. But someone doing a proper original restoration might need it, or it's parts, or even someone just keeping one going and not interested in changing over to discs. If space for it becomes an issue I'll give it away
