Hey guys I am building a 23 t for my girlfriend her father passed away about 2 months ago the frame and front axle look like they have been made from scratch I searched part numbers on these spindles and came up as 64 econoline but trying to find pics of them and they look different Does anyone know what kind of spindles these are or could be ?
A few more photos would help, but does look like an F1 or Econoline spindle on a Total Performance axle?
Perhaps you could show us the pictures you found, or describe what's different? It's possible your spindles were modified, but I really doubt anyone went to the trouble to forge an old Ford part number on them...????
The hole for the steering arm? Pretty sure that's original on the old vans...Ford used that style of steering arm on trucks in the 50s, as well. did you see this old thread on the HAMB? shows some econoline spindles being adapted to a different axle, they have the same hole for the steering arms. econoline spindles .
Been many years; but I used trimmed Econoline arms, a modified early Ford tie rod, and a homemade "sling shot" steering arm on a '33.
