What kind of spindles?

[Tad Palmer]

Iam a new guy,I gave $50.00 for a Drop Tube spring over axle ,it had spindles with crome brake backing plate ,new drums brake shoes ,the tie rod arms bolt to the spindles at the bottom, it has o rings at both ends of the king pins,from what I understand it could be econoline or Total preformance. What I do not have is a steering arm for Top of spindle , It will be a reversed Corvair .The holes at top of spindle are 2 1/2 on center. I am a Carpenter building a T Bucket . Any sugestions would be appreciated Thanks.

The holes on a TP spindle are 3 1/8", hole center to hole center. The Fords are 3 5/16".

Maybe Coupefreak will chime in here with the measurements from his Econoline spindles.
