The F bodies have different geometry and will cause your car to have bump steer (if you bounce the front end up or down the wheels turn just like you turn the steering wheel). NOT reccommended. See this link.

Some people say the volare/aspen spindles dont give the correct steering geometry, but then other folks seem to be using these parts in their A bodies with no issues.

I'am using the spindles off of a 85 5th Ave. They are the same as the volare. I looked at this sight and decided to go with them due to their excellent work through of the differences

Have you driven the car yet? Do you notice a difference in handling?

We have used a 78 donor disc set up on a 68 B body and did not notice the bump steer. The good thing is there are many 76-78 volares etc as donor cars.
