Re: Couple differential and axle questions
Do yourself a favor and get the correct length conversion axles, or have stock 67-70 axles redrilled to accept a 5 lug wheel. Nobody will be running that combo on purpose that I am aware of.
A lot of cats have just slid the 71-72 longer axles in and called it good, not knowing that the brakes don't line up and the bearings aren't running on the axle in the right spot. So even using the non-existent "spacers" will do you no good.
I have a 1969 housing that I am using moser conversion axles with the 5 lug patten. They work great. Cost me about $260 bucks with free shipping from Summit Racing.
