Got started on my front end ***embly with some old swap meet stuff I had laying around and immediately hit a snag. This appears to be a 42-48 Ford spindle but the inner bearing seat is larger than it should be, about 1.32 instead of 1.18. Larger seal also. Obviously, I have to find another one but I'm curious to know what this one is . Thanks
Maybe it ,s a 42-48 3/4 ton pickup spindle-they look pretty much identical , but the inner bearing seat is larger.........
^^^ yup, off a big pick-up. You can use F-1/F-100 brakes or the disc brake kits made for F-1/F-100 trucks.
F-1 spindles have a bolt on drivers side arm which includes the steering arm for side steer and p***enger side spindle has an integral arm with only one eye. "Tonner" truck spindles both have integral arms (OP post shows drivers side spindle) with the p***enger side arm also having a second eye for cross steer. You gotta look close to distinguish them from '42-'48 square-back spindles.
Possibly, I know I have a spare loose square back I’ve been wondering what the hell im going to do with just a single. I’ll check when I get home if it’s p*** or driver
