'40 Front End Specs and Info Request

Hi y'all,

I recently picked up a '40 front axle assembly for use on my "A". I plan to disassemble everything for cleaning/inspection and replace whatever needs it. While I've taken apart other kinds of hubs/brakes/spindles, I've never done anything of this age and not sure how different it may be.

Is there a documented resource for the tear down/build up of an early Ford axle? I'm interested in finding torque specs, exploded views, tips 'n' tricks, etc. that may help me disassemble everything without breaking parts and reassemble everything properly.

Thanks in advance,
Tommy
