    So just my luck my passenger side bolt that secured the bracket holding the passenger brake caliper down broke in the spindle. Currently have no luck getting it out. Anyways been trying to find new spindles but having a hard time. I got the driver side PN D4AZ-3106-A just can’t get find the passenger side.
    Was thinking of maybe finding some after market ones so I can do upgraded calipers/Rotors and not have the hub be part of the rotor. Any suggestions? TIA

    The RH PN is D4AZ-3105-A

    Is there a machine shop near you to take the spindle to?

    Sadly no. I’m needing to do ball joints on it anyways so might as well just toss the passenger side and hold the driver side as a spare
