Conversion spindles?

[bkz81]

Anybody make a set of conversion spindles, or know of some that would fit a 56 transtar? Preferably Chevy or Ford. I could go with wheel adapters, but I have never cared for those.

I would like to put a set of after market wheels on.

I thought it looked close, but I don't have anything to compare it to. Thanks for the info.

You may have trouble finding wheels that will fit onto the Stude truck drums with the unusual ridge they have.

One alternative is this

Will this work with a 1/2 Ton also?

If you look at the pictures, a half ton is what he was working on.
Go back and re-read the text too.
The 3/4 ton brake drums listed at the bottom were to inform people of x-reference for 3/4 ton drums.
