Our old Mopars originally have a guide pin attached to the hub.  But I don't think Ford rims have a hole for the guide.

So......the choices are either cut off the guide pin or drill a hole in a Ford rim.    I find the guide pin helpful when

re-mounting my rims using the lug bolts.

I cut the pins off of my drums and I am very sorry. They are a great help when you are trying to get a big fat heavy wheel/tire back on.  I wish I hadn't done that.

I took along a battery powered drill and bits with the Ford wheels when I went to pick up the 55 DeSoto. I didn't drill them in advance because for some reason I don't understand some people knock the guide pins off the Mopar hubs and no drilling is necessary then.

 

The 56 DeSoto was delivered to me as a part of the swap,and at least two of the wheels on it came from a modern Ranger.
