Default Nice

Looking good !

Is the F8 front axle a standard commercial Ford part ? The C8 front axle (I beam) part number is same as a 1939/40 Chev 30 cwt truck but they fitted the light commercial 15 cwt brakes .

Mechanics here usually use a expanding reamer with a screw on extension pilot and a floating tapered bush.
The tapered bush guides the reamer , keeping it in line with the opposite bore .
