Can I swap a 1948 front axle into a 1946?
I need some quick help guys, I've searched but to no avail. I have a 1946 1/2 ton pickup I'm piecing together. My passenger spindle was left sitting for 30 years without the hub on and is pretty rusty. I have a line on a 1948-mid fifties 1/2 Ton complete front axle assembly, wheel to wheel, for $100 that is in great shape with no rust. I don't think I can directly swap this in due to the steering being different, but can I use brake parts, backing plates, etc off of it? Also has anyone used one of these in the earlier Fords?
