    2g Eclipse GS, GST, or GSX front spindles will work. Cannot use the rear GSX spindle though. Might be able to use 8g or 3g Eclipse spindles, I will check CAPs for part numbers.
    7g for life!

    you might be carefull of the wheel size, 19X8 will probably rub on the rear with any kind of drop. i have problems when i drop too much with my 18x8. Depending on your tread, the 7.5 width is better

    Question do you need the front spindles or could you just get new 5 lug hub assemblys and bolt them to the exsisting spindles?

    you can get just the spindles (he spindle/ hub assembly is the same thing. basically the hub, bearing, and bearing housing.
    its the same part front or rear. for 94-2004 galants.
    95-2005 eclipses.
