Last one, front side view with 86-91 Ford 1-ton brakes.

Todd W · 11-14-2003, 06:47 PM

Any comparison pictures of them and the stock ones?

AZFord4x4 · 11-16-2003, 12:24 AM

of the brakes mounted? or of the knuckles side by side?

No we dont have a comparrison picture of the stock Ford and ours next to one another. The pic that AZFord attached shows a sock Dodge knuckle next to ours. The casting for our Ford and Chevy have the same meat at the high steer location.

I'll post some coparison shots when they come in if you'd like.

Needless to say, I think anything would be a step in the right direction for the weak stock ford knuckles.

Is there any easy way to do 35 spline outer conversion with Ford knuckles and Ford outers yet?

Reid Racing · 12-01-2003, 09:27 AM

I believe Randy's and Superior both are making 35 spline Ford stubs now. There could be others?

I originally did it without cutting anything. My rig is pretty much trail only, so I put in the spicer stubs, slipped in the warn drive slug & put in the snap ring. You just can't run the pretty outter cap... I sealed the hubs up with duct tape & ran that way for a few months untill I swapped over to the Dodge outters. My biggest concern was if there was enough spline to get the slug in far enough to fit a snap ring, but there was plenty of room. It wouldn't be difficult to cut off the extra shaft, but if ya don't mind lookin @ little redneck with the duct-tape covers it works great

tjmark · 12-13-2003, 07:22 PM

Hey Ryan those knuckels would not be comming my way would they.

Hope the card info went through!!

I believe Dynatrac, Terra and soon Rockcrusher are all offering their own ball joint knuckles.
We believe the kingpin is a much stronger more reliable way to go.
