Re: 40 Front Axle With 49 F2 Brakes?
So that confirms what I was starting to believe. Now back to the drums and hubs. Am I looking for 42-48 car (47 truck) hubs and drums? I'm sure I'll still need a spacer ring for the 35 wires as well.

Are the big truck hoods and sides the same as the pickups? I know the fenders are different but the entire hood assembly looks the same size and shape to me. Anyone know for sure?
