Import Tips
• Verify compatibility with specific Ford F-150 model years via OEM part numbers to ensure correct classification under vehicle parts
• Provide detailed engineering drawings or manufacturer specs to customs for substantiating non-driving axle spindle function
• Avoid misclassification as chassis parts by confirming it's not part of a complete axle assembly
