Topic: 47 Ford Car front axle dimensions

  Can someone tell me what the spindle centerline dimension measured on the top side of the axle is. Also can you tell me what the perch hole spacing is. I am trying to piece a 47 coupe back together and do not have the original axle and the one I bought used seems too wide. Thanks in advance for the replies.

  The 42 to 48 Fords had the widest axles of all the early V-8s. I found dimensions on the internet that I make no claim for the correctness of. Overall width 52" Radius rod holes 40 3/4" O.C. Keep in mind that in addition to the axle the radius rods are probably wider.
