Jon,  Doug Odom thinks that he has a lead of the ball bearing frt hubs---I
agree with what KT says -- I would try to stay with stuff you can by at NAPA
if you can---chevy brgs on ford spindle you can get anywhere--I bought a
Speedway axel for my lakester and the kingpins are not parallel---not really
a big deal, it goes straight-- I was just disapointed
