Im looking for the torque specs for the rear spindle nuts on a 1958 ford 1ton. Also looking for some 1 piece wheels for the same truck in 16 or 17 in. with the factory 6 lug bolt pattern.

 

Hi and welcome to FTE.

Those torque specs should be in your shop manual. As far as the wheels the other guys will have the answer.

 

Here you go. I haven't explored this site, but it's supposed to have everything. Let me know if that's actually true.

You'll be looking a while, since none exist in 16" or 17" sizes. And it would be nice if you'd have told us whether you have single or dual rear wheels. It matters, and would have shortened this answer. What I'll list below lets you know what trucks came with tubeless wheels in either 17.5" or 19.5" sizes, single and DRW, to allow you to focus your search. I sure hope you didn't expect somebody to give you a phone number to call and order these things, because what you're looking for are not easy to find.

Your truck has 6 lug x 7.25" bolt pattern hubs. Other brands that used this setup are Dodge, IHC, and Studebaker. If you are looking for single wheel style, i.e. those with 1/2" of positive offset, your options are Budd #73230 which is a 17.5" x 5.25" tubeless. Harder yet to find is Budd #70740 which is a 19.5" x 5.25" tubeless. If you have DRWs, you're only option is a Budd #79120 which is a 17.5" x 5.25" having about 5" of positive offset.

So, if you have singles, the 17.5" has a National Wheel and Rim Association (NWRA) number X-45063. It cross refers to Ford part #B8Y 1015A, Dodge part #1938162, and Studebaker part #1687599. You'll find them on Dodge D300/P300s through 1968, Ford F-350/P-350s through 1966, and Studebaker tonners through 1964.

The 19.5" single is NWRA # X-45064. It cross refers to Ford #B6Y 1015B, and Studebaker #1686092. You'll find them on the same models of Ford and Studebaker listed above.

If you have duals, the 17.5" is NWRA # X-45057. It cross refers to Ford part #B6Y 1015A, IHC #156110-R92, Dodge #s 1665416 and 2229808, and Studebaker #1686091. In addition to the above, you'll find them on IHC 130/1300s through 1968.

The best place to look is Craigs List. It's not uncommon to see the dual wheel style listed there. The singles will be harder to find. Stu
