Stock Drum Spindles / Spring Plates recommendation

[Walt]

Hi,

I'm looking to get my bus back to stock height - Been searching the usual suppliers for Original drum spindles and stock spring plates, but to no avail;

All the spindles now seem to be dropped and the spring plates adjustable.


Anyone know if they are available or recently bought these new? Or am I looking at finding some original ones 2nd hand on the likes of ebay?

Noticed a couple of original Late bay ones but they were listed as being longer - Is this an issue?


Thanks,
Steve

There's some early stock spindles on eBay, good price, but obviously can't take the condition for granted.

I think I've got some stock early springplates in a box. I can check over the weekend.

If you've got dropped spindles and want to swap for stock @sjuhel is looking for some.

I'd noticed these but wasn't sure how bad the damage thread was.

Not sure about swapping at the moment as might want to go back lowered at some point.
