the AAJ kit and the scarebird kit both use the stock spindles.

with the AAJ kit you'll need to slightly modify the spindle to both clear the aspen rotor and tap the bottom ears to bolt the steering arms on. i have a couple things i learned in this process to make it easier.

the scarebird is such that you knock your old drum off the hub and you use a ford rotor on the dodge hub.

both use GM calipers and pads.

both kits seem really nice but hindsight being 20/20 i would give the edge to the scarebird kit for use of the dodge hub. the AAJ kit uses a spacer to allow use of the aspen rotor on the spindle. i had to change the spindle nut and thrust washer and open up the kotter pin hole to make it all work.
