Difference on 85 spindles and 87-88 ???. January 10, 2007, 01:54:31 AM Yesterday, I jackstanded My ole Bird to change My sensatracs for the PRC ones I have, I removed My shocks from the drivers side front, I started By the front cauz it's a bit more job than the rear, I rebolted the PRC to the up in first, and when I tried to put on the spindle assy, the strut don't enter!!!, the part of the spindle for the two 1/2" bolt the bottom of the strut is near 1/4" too thick...This is only on the TC models the spindle is less thich or only 87-88 models???, I have a 88 base bird on the side of My home, but is under a lot of snow, and I'm not able (impossible) to go to check...on My 85 Bird the thickness is exactly 1", and on the prc is 3/4"...Does the spindles of My 88 will fit (have 3/4" thickness) or only on a TC models...Best regards, Quote Selected
