Hey All,

Need new spindles for my Nypex project, it is based off a 2011 Nytro MTX front end. Do the 2008 spindles have the same geometry as the 2009’ + years? Or was the geometry change found in the length and shape of the A-arms? I’m looking at a few used sets, just want to see if they’re compatible.

Thanks for any help!
 
They are different. The 09+ have more trail and the tie rod mount is located a little different. I ran the newer 09+ spindles with the 2008 a-arms for awhile last season. The tie rods had to be shortened but other than that they worked.



 
Excellent, thanks for the help!

To save myself the headache of lengthening tie rods, might just try and hold out for some newer spindles...
