Here's a better picture of what's needed to do the front hubs. You can see the old 6 lug flange on the floor and the new toledo adapter there too. I want to point out that the inner 8 bolt flange is not designed to carry the whole weight of the truck. It IS however a great start and centers the whole setup perfectly. Fortunately these adapters from wheeladapters.com are machined round through the center, so one just has to machine what's left of the old 6 lug bell flange to be a snug fit inside the toledo adapter. Now the weight is out in the middle of the bearings where it was intended to be. I welded the two together for added security. One little bead at a time, to reduce any pull. With a good fit, the welding isn't needed really, but it's kind of like some of us guys who wear both a belt and suspenders, just in case. Now I'm gonna dig through my old computer to find a pic of the '53 rear hubs. Maybe Bill has a part number. I know a guy who has tons of NOS ford big truck parts in Toms River New Jersey. Maybe you can skip all this work and convert the rear axle like Henry did.
