What started out to be a simple upgrade on the front ball joints quickly turned into a challenge, upon reassembly of the front end all was going well until I checked the wheel for wheel bearing looseness. At first it felt like bad wheel bearings and after talking with the owner I guessed we had a problem (bearings had been replaced recently).
The front spindles had worn to the point that you could feel a lose wheel.
The hunt was on for early seventy's ford spindles, New ones please, yea right!
I got very lucky and found one on the east coast and one in the mid west, yep NOS! very lucky.
Made the necessary modifications needed to adapt to the HiTech then had them powder coated.
After install every thing felt as it should.
