Sold/Expired Ford 8 Lug Dana 44 Spindles, Caliper Brackets

Ho Shorts · Mar 8, 2017

As title states I need to convert my 79 F150 axle to 8 lug so I need some spindles and caliper brackets off a 76-79 f250 front axle. I have the hubs already.

Swap your knuckles and use Chevy outers. The Ford brakes suck and Chevy parts are more plentiful.

If you can find the hubs I have a set of spindles for $150 shipped. I also sell a disc brake kit for that axle for $295 shipped. Link for the Dana 44 kit below.

Wanting to stay ford for a few reasons.

I found the hubs, just need spindles and caliper brackets. Anyone know if drum brake spindles are the same? Buddy has a set if so.

Pretty sure they aren't. I still run ford hubs and rotors but Chevy brakes because the Ford sucked. I recently bought a new spindle online for around 50 bucks because they are almost impossible to find used.

I have found the spindles new, caliper brackets seem to be the issue. Really don't want to swap my knuckles these are modified for my steering already. Never thought these parts would be so hard to find.

You'll have a hard time finding brake brackets that aren't stretched. One of the reasons I went with an aftermarket type bracket. Then you can run much better chevy calipers and still run ford rotors, knuckles etc.
