Spindle help

I have a 2000 ranger I'm building up as a project truck I ran into a little bit of an issue I know everyone puts mustang wheels on their truck (I'm also guilty of it) however my question is can I switch out the spindle and or which vehicle can I remove it from to be able to use the center cap on the wheels I bought?

There really is no bolt on option when it comes to the spindles. If you want to run the center caps, you'll need to buy some spacers for the wheels to get them away from the hub.

They're the same as the Ranger spindles. You'll run into the same problem. You can't mix and match spindles because the ball joint sizes are all different. You just have to deal with the spacers.
