I just found out that using these spindles for a 944 conversion probably isn't a great idea.

Some of the 944 conversion methods I have found use a drum brake spindle and a steel caliper adapter. If you want to use dropped spindles you need to use the disc version. The reason for this is that one of the mounting holes needed to mount the caliper adapter goes through the steering knuckle and the other hole is above it. I personally don't think it's safe to machine away any material on that knuckle/rib, and the second hole being above it poses more problems in designing your caliper adapter.

If you aren't using dropped spindles, stock drum brake spindles are the way to go (keith seume's book uses this method).

Just thought I'd share before anyone buys a set of these for the conversion. I almost did...
