Ok im kinda confused. Im putting chevy 8 lug hubs onto my stock 5 lug dana 44. What gets me is that the chevy outer axle is shorter then my dodge outer but when i mock everything together..including locking hubs, everything works. I was told i needed the spindle and chevy outer for it to work?
Chevy spindle and dodge spindle is the same length.
chevy outter and dodge inner is Not the same length.
ok thats the first question.
Now i was trying to put on the chevy backing plate (which holds the calipers) onto my dodge axle but the stock caliper bracket holes( the part where the caliper bracket mounts too on the knuckle) are making it so it will not sit flush onto the spindle.
Im thinking of grinding the 2 pieces off, but kinda scared if this all doesnt work i want to be able to put it back to stock.
Thought i would ask before i did some grinding..
thanks in advance!
