Will disc brake spindles for a 69 Camaro fit a 64 A body? Will I need to change ball joints or just the steering arms? (So many options out there just don't know when to work on the ball joint or not...)

The spindles will fit, no need to change ball joints (unless the old ones are worn). I'm not sure if you can just swap the '69 steering arms side-for-side, so I'll say use your '64 steering arms to be safe.

B-mans right. the spindles will bolt right on, the rotors too. I've sold maybe 100 sets over the years for swaps and I'm very familiar with them. Use the steering arms off of your drum spindles. On the calipers, make sure the bleeder valves are on top. Sometimes you have to swap to A body calipers (very available). You will Love the improvement in safety and have more confidence and pleasure with your car every time you (or loved ones) get in for a spin. Steve www.pontiacheaven.org
