I have some used parts to upgrade my 62 Midget to disk brakes. Everything is stripped but I cannot remove the spindle - the pin that holds the spindle to the fulcrum just won't budge. Is there anyone that rebuilds the front a-arms?
 
those pins are generally always stuck. Thin cut off wheel works. I beleive a few folks here do indeed know of some good rebuilt a arm souces. Sure they'll chime in

No.... and beginning around Thanksgiving, he'll be on an island somewhere between France and Iceland. Running some rallye, no doubt. Call him.

Thanks all - I have spoken with Eric and the parts are on their way. I caught him before he flew off to compete in the LeJog in an Escort RS2000. He is another supper nice guy in this hobby of ours.

any other people who rebuild/rebush king pins/spindles for Spridgets someone you would use or recommend?
 
I'll second the recommendation for Eric Jones. He provided rebuilt A frames for my BE project that look great. He was also pretty reasonable on a rebuilt gearbox.
