Dumb Question

Are the spindles the same from f100's to f250's and can you install rotors from an f100 on a f250? Yes? No? i'm talking about a 1977 truck.
Thanks

i guess it would depend on wether or not they are both the same lug patern or not..(i.e. 5 lug 8 lug)every 250 ive seen was 8 lug but if there the same it should work.......i would guess.

F150 vs F250 spindles: They may be the same, they may not be the same. It all depends on the GVW of the F250.

D5TZ3105F .. Right Front Spindle / Marked: D5TE-3107-JA

D5TZ3106F .. Left Front Spindle / Marked: D5TE-3108-JA

Fits: 1975/79 F100/150 and 1975/79 F250 w/a GVW of 6200 or 6900 lbs. (single piston calipers).

yea to add to that it also depends on the rear end if it's a pos track or limited slip or open diff. the lug is always different the rotor's will swap over but i hope you arent trying to put used rotors on your truck i have to ask.

All 1953/96 F250's have 8 lug wheels on a 6.50" bolt circle, regardless of what the rear end is (Dana 60, Dana 61, Sterling 10.25, or Ford 8.8 = 1983/89 F250 Light Duty).

1948/52 F1's, 1953/79 F100's, some 1980/83 F100's, 1975/96 F150's have 5 lug wheels on a 5.50" bolt circle.

Some 1980/83 F100's have 5 lug wheels on 4.50" bolt circle.
