      Notes
      This is a basic kit, so you do not get the outer bearings # 912TLM11949 & 912TLM11910. If using with own "Mopar" rotors, need to order inner seal 91631921-1 (sold as pair) as well.

      These Speedway spindles are a one piece, drop forged design constructed of high strength 4140 steel, which makes them superior to original components. These spindles are modeled after the '37-'41 round-back design and use '37-'41 Ford kingpins. They  fit Ford axles from '28-'48 and can be used with period correct drum brakes or modern Speedway Motors disc brakes, but will not work with hubs from '28-'36.
      • Uses 1937-1941 kingpin kit
      • For Ford axles 1928-1948
      • Will not work with 1928-1936 Hubs 
      Be sure to include our kingpin kit (91032121) with these spindles. 
      Spindles also available in kit form with Standard or Deluxe kingpins.
