I think I just sold one of these to another member, but inscase I am thinking of the wrong part, is this the metal thing where the strut connects, the wheel cylinder is, and where it connects behind wheel? Got a pic? What side do you need? I'm sure I have a good one.

I'm still not seeing how the spindle comes apart.

 

Here are a few pics of an SHP strut.

They happen to be fully assembled with caliper and backing plate, etc.

 

How do you separate the spindle portion from the strut tube?

It looks like it is welded on the underside.

I think there is something wrong with these struts as one of the adjuster wheels does not turn.

 

I'm probably not going to be getting my parts car for a few weeks.

That car does have regular struts on it.

I was talking rear spindles before, the fronts are the same all years that have 5 lugs.

 

On the fronts Just pop the cap of fthe center of the spindle, remove the retainer cap, pull the cotter pin and remove the castle nut. Then it pulls right off. The spindle stub is an intergal part of the strut body so to replace a front spindle, you need a whole new strut body.

88/89 are incompatable with 87 and older. the 88/89's are 6 bolt at the CV flange.

 

I've heard the term "axle shaft" as well, but that term often gets mixed up with the CV shafts.

 

I've also called it an "axle stub".
