These front suspension packages make it easier to begin transforming your Model A frame into a rolling chassis. Kits include a 48" I-beam axle, radius rods, leaf spring and shackles. Kit works well with the SM300 Pro Shocks (shocks not included).

Axle kit designed to work with frame #916-57045. Choose plain or chrome finish.

 

All I-beam axles use the Ford spindle. We have brake kits with both Chevy and Ford bolt patterns available for the Ford spindle.

The brake kit you select will determine the final track width (hub to hub). The brake kits intended for this application (the Wilwood or our 702-4475 Metric brake kit) produce a final track width of about 56-1/4". Some of the other brake kits (like the 916-31903), which are not recommended for this application, would increase the track width by over an inch.

Front End Assembly

By Randall Bowman from Springfield, MO on 5/16/2011
Pros:
High-Performance
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

[...] I needed a front brake rotor kit with a 5 on 5.5 bolt pattern. The only one available was the 11.75" Impala conversion. The front end kit went together extremely well until I came to the drop arms, which would not work. I went back online to get the customer service number to see what was going on. Before calling I went to the online catalog page to get the part number of the rotor kit. And there is bold print was a note saying the standard drop arms will not work with this rotor kit. It gave the correct part number for flat drop arms. I ordered the right ones right then and sent the ones I had ordered wrong back. [...]

Lower that Ford

By POPS from Houston, Texas on 11/10/2011
Was this a gift?:
No
Pros:
Durable, Easy To Use, Love the radius rods, Love the Super Bell axle
Describe Yourself:
Builds street rods
Cons:
Flimsy, Poor quality on shackles, Poor quality on u-bolts
Best Uses:
Street rods
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I like the 4 inch dropped Super Bell axle assy. Good price. I like the batwing brackets with radius rods. I had to buy better spring shackles and spring u-bolts. The shackles bushings were plastic or nylon and they would have never held up. I had to order them from an antique Ford parts house.I'm using this assy under a 1928 Ford pickup. I also ordered a disc brake assy to add to this front end.
