Reply to "Big bearing front spindles?"

The bearing size itself is not really an issue.
If you compare the front hubs on the Pantera to the 65-69 Mustangs you will find that they interchange.
The od of the front hubs on the Mustangs was chaged during the 69 model production to use a larger inside diameter bearing to increase the strength to handle the change over to 60 series wide oval tires.
This was also a God send for racers since the weak link of the front suspension was the hubs.
Wilkinson is listing only the GT5 as a replacement part.
I suppose that I will need to call him to see if it uses the same bearings since no one here seems to know.
It isn't only the size of the hub shaft on the Pantera, but the size of the bolts that hold it all together is on the wimpy side by comparison to the Mustangs.
In looking at all of this comparison, if the size of the tires, the width of the wheel, and size of the brakes is increased and put into heavy service like racing or even open track, I have my doubts that there won't be some kind of an issue there.
Granted there is a difference in the front/rear weight loading of the suspension between the two cars but it is best to be safe here rather then dead with track personnel picking you up with a vacuum cleaner and broom and shovel?
The front hub of the Pantera seems to have only one choice that I see, so there may not be another way to go but I'm just looking for information on this.'
There doesn't seem to be alot of that available?
Thanks.
