The way I solved the problem with the Ranch Wagon was to buy another set of spindles. I couldn't find replacements so the car sat in the barn for more than 20 years... Thank goodness for the internet. HRP
I would go to the trifive forum & post a want ad. Surely someone has good originals that were swapped out for dropped spindles
Good used ones are around to be had for about $75.00 a pair,why mess with a part that is in that bad of shape? If it was all you had ,then I can see trying to make it work. A cl***ic case of a penney holding up a dime !
