if you have bank, goto a good machine shop with the hardbody spindles, bearings and seals, and some toyota hubs/rotors bearings and seals, and both brake calipers, and they can make the parts work.

all you need to buy is the toyota hubs , rotors. I would suggest gettin the hubs from the junk yard ( usually around $20-30 for the pair here). Buy new rotors, and while your at it. It would be a good time to go ahead and get new bearings and seals. You can re-use your bearings if you choose. The outer seal is the same on the nissan and the toyota. The Toyota inner seal is diff. you will have to buy this new. You need a 90-94 toyoya hub. Then you have your spindles machined to fit the toyota inner seal. LAYNROCKERS on here has machined several sets of spindles and is very resonablly priced. and saves alot of headache...no sense in swapin whole front clips when you can just unbolt spindles and hubs. and nissans lay out on big wheels. If you don't have dropped spindles i would suggest buyin those before having the machine work done. And gettin the droped spindles done instead of factorys. Hope this helps. Just send LAYNROCKERS an IM and im sure he will get back to you ASAP. He usually has a really quick turnaround also.
