Re: Eaton HO72/HO52 vs. 14 Bolt FF
First post here after lurking a while here and on Pirate regarding my HO72.
I have a question that I have not seen addressed anywhere yet. My axle is from a 56 3800 truck. Has 5.14 gears and slide on drums that are 14” diameter. Yes 14”.
Only issues I have with them is that they are not self adjusting and there are no provisions for a parking brake. I’m sure they will stop awesome but no parking brake and not self adjusting sounds like a pain. Sounds like I may need hubs/drums from a newer model?
I would ideally like to go to discs for simplicity but that would require a newer housing
And this will not be in a big old truck. It’ll be swapped into my Jeep Cherokee
