I've lost of misplaced the info on installing for F100\150 spindles
on the 55\56 Packard

Can anyone give me the web link to info

If my memory serves me the Man who did this lived in Las Vegas.

I was lucky to find the spindle and rotor's for a good price,
but since then I've had way to many projects to get done...
Best

Thanks Craig

I was going nuts for a day or so trying to remember..
I saw another site but he was using the Mopar\Chevy etc
machine shop setup... around 2002...

I have the spindles, from a Ford F150
and today I started to disasemble a spare set of control arms
I have, clean them put new bushing in...
and get that project on it's way....

Thanks again

Yep that is the article... I thought there was some write up
about this install.. I keep thinking that there was a mention
of a "sleeve" needed for the king pin.
Do you have any more info?
Is Paul still active on here?

IIRC, a +0.005in king pin is needed to fit the Ford and the Packard holes have to be reamed correspondingly. If you PM me, I'll send you Paul's phone #.
