I am the proud owner of an 85 ttb front end, the trouble is the way the brakes are retained is very poor. The bolt that retains the little I-beam broke off and was re-drilled but at a bad angle that allows the caliper to literally fall out and rub against the wheel. I went to both the dealer and napa with no luck in finding a replacement.
What I have found is a ttb axle out of a 96 f250 with a better braking system. My question is, does anyone know anything about the differences in these axles. I would like to just replace the steering knuckle out but I'm not sure that the 96 knuckle would fit on the 85 axle, if there is a difference in the ball joints. Any help would be appreciated.
