The Ford F-150 features a strong and robust 36mm spindle nut, typically constructed from stainless steel, although some cheaper versions may be made from alloyed steel. This high-quality spindle nut plays a key role in the F-150's durability. It is designed to secure complementary parts on the spindle and maintain their proper order of attachment. To achieve this, the spindle nut on the F-150 incorporates a locking mechanism that securely seals the nut in place once attached to the spindle. In vehicles such as the F-150, the half shaft is linked to the wheel through the spindle nut.
The Ford F-150 spindle nut socket measures 1/2 inch in size.
