I am to the point where I am looking for knuckles for my 9/10" Frontend. I know I want to run 40 spline shafts, I have not decided on which axles yet as I would love to have 50 degree steering but that means u joints not Rcv's. I have been considering 3 knuckles but none are exactly what I want.
1 is spidertrax pro series knuckles but then I am limited to a 60 size joint, plus is uniballs top and bottom and ultimate unit bearings.
2 is wide open design, I could use the Rockwell sized joint but I would rather have uniballs top and bottom and want to run a unit bearing for simplicity.
3 is EOR, they have the Rockwell sized joint availability and run uniballs top and bottom but are also made for conventional style spindles and hubs.
What are some thoughts and why??
 
JDodd is making/looking to make just what you are looking for. Uniballs and Unit bearings with Rockwell size joints.

RCV is getting close to fully release their big bell axles for the Ford hub so who is thinking about runing them?

I have designed some fabbed knuckles around this setup and i'd like to hear some input from the guys looking at running these.

branik will be making 1550 yokes and joints for the 05+ superduty knuckles very soon
the factory knuckles are cheap

the reid super knuckles above are an aftermarket version of these with kingpins
