1. Chevy 1949-54 spindles are specifically designed for use on tube axles. A shorter, thicker axle stub makes this a slightly stronger spindle ideal for use with heavier street rods.
2. Ford 1928-48 spindles are generally your best choice when using an original Ford axle or an aftermarket I-beam axle.

Cross Steering vs. Traditional Steering

Traditional steering provides an original, period look, but will only work in these applications:

• Four bar setup with '68-'73 Mustang box
• Split wishbone or hairpin radius rod with reversed Corvair or '48-'56 Ford Puckup steering box
• Parallel Steering Set-Up Guide

Cross steering (using a Vega box) is the preferred method for nearly all cross spring, beam axle suspensions. Ford used this design from 1935-on.

• Less bumpsteer
• More comfortable steering column angle
• Frees up foot pedal / bellhousing room
• Cleaner vehicle profile
• Cross Steering Guide
