    Along with my A frame I got a front and rear end with it and was curious if anyone could help me figure out what they are. I was told the front axle is a 40s ford, but I have absolutely no knowledge of ford parts.

    Also would it be tough getting that rear end set up similar to how an A rear worked with the single leaf spring setup instead of coil overs?

    Front axle looks to be a model a with 42-48 brakes good parts. Rear looks like a Ford P/u dana 44 with some of the worst spring mounts etc I've ever seen. Can't tell for sure but rear radius rods look like 35-36 good parts too. Rear axle could be used if you start over with the spring mounting system.

    Alright thanks a bunch, as I said I don't really know a lot about it all, I hope that picks up though as I start putting it all together. It all was on the frame at one point and what I was told was it was a running car, and it was all taken apart and sat for 15 (if I recall correctly) years. The guy I bought it from, bought it all just for the body that was on the frame.

    Now that I know whats on there it will help in finding parts for the parts. :) Thanks again.
