Will attach to '37-'48 Ford spindles and accept 11/16" Ford "tapered" tie rod ends (both the top and bottom are tapered to allow tie rods to mount above or below arm as needed). You can drill-through with a 5/8" bit to use spherical rod ends.

Use a 46" eye-to-eye tie rod link when used with a 48" wide axle with Ford spindles.

Overall Assessment

Customers are largely impressed with the product's quality, durability, and excellent fit. They praise the well-crafted and beautifully polished finish. The steering arms perfectly fit various models, including the 31 coupe, 32 Ford, Speedway spindles, and Superbell axles, reinforcing their versatility. Noted features such as the ability to install tie rod ends from the top or bottom provide great flexibility. Some had to make slight modifications to achieve the best fit. Although the product did not fit all axles, it cleared the radius rods and depicted an old-style look preferred by many. The majority would confidently recommend this product and repurchase. Users valued the product’s quality, functionality, and look over competitors, recognizing Speedway's reliable product selection.

good product,described well,will recommend to a friend

i first tried the flat plate style,but the tie rod would not fit ,so these mounted on the lower holes of the stubs with the offset upwards the tierod now goes over the top of the radius rods. So to fit hydraulic brakes to an original 29 A ford I used,Speedway parts:- stub axles,1 3/4drop steering arms[reversed],hoop style upper arm,and tierod kit this is right hand drive. the hole for the cross steer if not used for that purpose could be used for a steering damper

I used these on the Speedway 4" drop spring behind axle kit. This put the tie rod right through the radius rods. Great quality part, so I actually ordered another set for another project I'm collecting parts for.

I am fabricating some front spindles for Wide 5 wheels, and wanted to be able to use the early Ford backing plates. These worked out great and fit perfectly. One note: Early Ford spindles are actually 3 5/6" center to center. Every vendor of parts for these brakes claims they are 3 3/8". I called Speedway before purchasing the arms and they actually pulled some off the shelf and measured them for me. I've given up on chrome plating , for 3 bucks give me stainless every time.

These arms require1/2" x 20 threaded bolts to mount. What bolts are people using that will clear the 28-48 Ford spindle with Lincoln backing plates? My Grade 8 bolt heads will not clear the spindle (the round part that enters the backing plate). Do I need to grind the spindle to make clearance for the bolt heads?

If I'm using steering arms that are drilled 5/8 with a 7 deg. taper, can I drill them out for 11/16 to use 11/16-18 tie rod ends? Do I lose the taper when I do that? Can't seem to find any info on this on the net.

Front cross steer? I have a 4" drop tube axle, ford spindles, wildwood disc brakes. The axle will be over the springs (just like the original scout). I want to do a front cross steer (just like original scout), can these be flipped to the front steer and would they mount to the upper or lower spindle bolts? What is the length of the arm?
