PDA : 70\71 fj55 birfield coarse or fine? swamppig 03-27-2002, 05:35 PM Is the birfield off of a production 70 sale 71 fj55 coarse or fine? I ask because i am pursueing longifields and mr long says he wont take coarse for core since i need PU birfs for FDB thanks ben wngrog 03-27-2002, 05:49 PM Drum brake US Cruisers all had course spline Birfs. 76 and up are fine spline. You are out of luck!

Nah. Just do the minitruck disc brake conversion. swamppig 03-27-2002, 08:19 PM I plan on doing the minitruck conversion, but i ahve everything but spindles and birfields and was hoping to kill two birds with one stone by getting the PU birfs as longfields right away. I guess that might not work... anyone got spare birfs for the PU fe? spindles? thanks 2car 03-28-2002, 12:19 AM Can I use 60 series spindles with course spline Birfields? If not; why not? I have lots of CS Birfields and was going to use them with a 60 series DBC.
