What vehicles have a 122" wheelbase I can get the axles off of?

 

It's for the 1948 Ford F2

 

Both the F-2 and F-3 have 122 inch wheelbase. Which do you have?

 

I think you are confusing "wheelbase", which is the distance from front to rear between the axles, and track width, which is the distance between the wheels on one axle?

It may help to go by the width of the axles and the bolt patterns.

Trying to find axles for it

 

You will need a 48-52 F-2 for the axles. I don't know of anything else that would fit. I pretty sure even F-3 axles will be different.

 

Is yours missing or just noisy? It might be cheaper to fix than to pay shipping for an unknown.

 

The axles are original I want to go highway speeds.

 

Are we talking about axles or replacing an F-2 rear end something else with a different ratio?

 

Both the axles and the rear end

 

If you have a 48-52 F-2 you can replace the rear axle housing with one from a 57-72 Ford F-1 pickup. If you are still running an original engine try to find one with a ratio of about 3.25 to 3.50. Bolt pattern will be 5x5.5 instead of 8-bolt. You can put F-1 brakes and hubs on the front axle and then have 5x5.5 all around. If you do not wish to change the bolt pattern you might try an F-250 rear end of the same years but finding a 3.25 ratio for that rear end will be more difficult...

 

I do want to change it and I have found a72 f100 that I can pull the axles from.

 

It isn't completely a "drop-in", read the article I linked in Post #4 to see the driveshaft mods, pinion angle correction, and spring plate modifications needed.

 

Okay I will, thanks.
