No, they do not fit. The Ford calipers are longer from top to bottom than a GM/Dodge caliper.

Also the brackets do not interchange as Ford's are 5 bolt whereas GM & Dodge are 6 bolt. To use a Ford caliper you'd have to swap everything from the knuckle out.

All Ford stuff is 5/8" shorter (stub, spindle and bearing hub) than Chevy & Dodge so you'd still need to swap everything from the knuckles out.

That said, the TTB D50 bearing hubs will work on a king pin Ford D60. All of the other TTB parts are different from similar Ford D60 parts.
