Reviews
Front steering spindles
Installing the part was quick and straightforward. Recommend ordering new caps with the spindle. The plastic had hardened, and I pretty much destroyed them trying to get them off.

Easy to install but the part is designed poorly.
Did not take much time to install new parts but the design of the spindle is poor. Not enough welds on the hub that holds the tire in place. Prone to snapping as the previous part did

Requires a floor jack to lift the front end.
Fairly easy job. I changed both front axel spindles, all thrust washers, and retaining clips in about 1 hour. A floor jack and jack stands are required. Basic tools are required, 1/2" and 9/16" wrenches and a "C" ring removal tool.
