It is in the "FORD Canada Service Bulletins", the brake drum pictured is from the Ford Truck. I used the diagram because it illustrated quite well how tire diameter relates to kingpin geometry.
Ford don't use a spacer, they use a one piece cast hub/drum with proper roller bearings. Instead of different offset wheels, they use a different dimension on the hub/drum. The brake backing pate and brake shoes remain the same, as do the spindle and wheel bearings. Ford also used the same axle, spindle and bearings with a different hub/drum for the F8 and C11ADF.
