alright i just bought an 8.8 and i have 15x10 rockcrawler rims and i was just wondering if there has to be some kind of spacers for the axle to be the same width as my dana 30, or is it just fine and the width will be close to the same as the font. Did the search also and people kinda just srcach the surface on the matter:flipoff2: :D

the 8.8 is so close in width to the dana 30 i wouldnt worry about it. i didnt. you must have rims with 4" of backspacing or less, otherwise the rims wont clear the caliper

yeah this is what i was thinking, cause i don't really know what the backspacing is on my rim though.
