Will 2012 Assault spindles fit my 2006 S/B?

[Stumper]

Hey folks, this maybe too early for a model year 2012 question, but....
I have been offered a pair of 2012 Assault S/B 800 spindles for 1/2 price of new. Will they fit my 2006 Switcher?

Also, I ordered the front 225lb front shock spring, in your opinions should I remove the skid to install or leave it in?

Hopefully I will soon be able to turn my beast. Point straight and shoot is getting boring !!!

Thanks in advance.

I believe 2012 is metric and the 2006 is SAE you might have trouble with rod ends ski bolts might even have to replace A arms.

I was just looking at this i've got the spindles off of my pro and the wifes 07 IQ for powder coating. side by side the a-arm holes line up, the tie rod is lower on the pro spindle and it sets the ski bolt forward about an inch and down about half. it will bolt up the same though. I was wondering about this too. I might try a swap once we get some snow just to try it out. If the difference in steering is that noticeable it would only be about $250 to buy a new pair and swap them in. we'll see...

I checked with Carls and they say they won't fit...
