NOS Truck Spindles: Can anyone ID these?
Looking for some guidance on exactly what these are as well as a reasonable value for them. (Not stealbay price). They are NOS and must be for a bigger truck. Although there is a FORD tag on them, it is not readable. Any guidance would be appreciated.

The number looks like maybe 51-3105 which the parts book
shows as RH 1936-37 big truck. |

The spindle with the arm on top which has a ball is Part Number 51-3015. This fit production 1936 and 1937 Trucks. The other with only one arm is Part Number 51-3106 and also for 1936 and 1937 Trucks.
Both of these spindles will fit a 1935 Truck but requires changing the 1935 tie rod to the 1936 style tie rod with 1936 style tie rod ends. The 1935 production truck spindles (Part No. BB-3105 on left and right) used balls on the tie rod ends and corresponding balls on the tie rod spindle ends. These generally don't wear out and good used examples are plentiful. Unlike car and pickup parts, there's not a big market for big truck parts like these.

Sorry, I got the part numbers flipped. The one with the ball is 51-3106 and the other without the ball is 51-3105.
