carnut had a post about it titled 61-67 econoline discs,the end of the post has a link to a roger mingle for the parts list. the only non stock part is the caliper bracket made from a piece of flat plate.I would like to do that mod on my spindles when I get to building my T coupe. Thats why I saved the link. What are you planning to put them on?

The EMT Junkie has been waiting for a set-up for Econoline spindles from Total Performance for months. They seem to be a BO item. I think he got the spindles from Charlie Chops so maybe he (Charlie) has another idea where they can be gotten from.It's a shame that the three people that might know something (Vance, Charlie and Frank) haven't responded because I'm sure I got some part of this wrong. I just needed to type. GPster

I'm looking. As I recall, there is a rotor that will fit with no modification at all, but I don't remember what it was. I'll find it.

I found it. Ford Arostar rotors will bolt right up.

I don't know whose kits are out there. I had an axle that required the Econoline spindles...didn't use and sold them to Lance.

thanks again guys.

My buddy Bert already received help from the link to Roger.

Bert mentioned some years of Ford Ranger brake rotors bolt on to the spindals too. Must be the same deal as the AeroStar mini-van rotor

:T)

And I didn't use them either :oops:
I couldn't find steering arms :x
I sold them to a guy on another site, and ordered a set of TP spindles.

once again, I'm absolutely no help
