    I found a set of split wishbones and I think the guy said they were for 37-40??? Ford. Does anyone know if these would fit a 47 Ford car?

    37-40 wishbones are not the same shape or size as a 47. Might be able to get them to work if you are splitting the bones, but the lack of drop behind the axle might prevent you from getting really low. Might also require some reworking of the front spring perch.

    I'd just look for some 42-48 wishbones.
