    Drum hub question

    I was curious my cousin wants to do mustang steve cobra set up. But as she is restoring her car was stripped of the spindles. I have now sourced the spindles minus the hubs which I need the car has 70 big bearing spindles. I'm having a hard time sourcing big bearing hubs. Will a early pre 70 hub fit?  I know the a12 outer bearing has the same height and od measurements as the a2.  But the a13 bearing is wear the problem lies will an a13 fit it has same od measurments as the a6 but the height is different slightly. So will a early hub fit a late spindle?

    Hubs are same 65-73.  The later bearings just have a larger hole in the center.

    So does anyone have the bearing part numbers for the larger 70 spindle? The knucklehead at the parts store couldn't find it about a year ago when I was looking. Ended up using a 69 spindle. Thanks.

    I believe A12 and A13 fit the 70 -newer spindles.

    Thanks Steve, I saw those numbers listed but didn't think they were the complete numbers.
