Everything went well except one axle was too long. Talked to tech and my differential guy and removed .200 off the end and fits well now.

One of the axle in the kit was missing the bearing assembly. Your customer service was very efficient in sending me the missing part, no-charge, in just a few days.

What bearing set is used for this axle.

by Tony

• a year ago

1 answer

what is the distance from wheel mounting service to wheel (could be without the thickness of the brake drum). Normally I would assume the 56" is axle flange to axle flange (wheel Brake drum mounting surface) but it appears you axle flange is really housing flange for axle bearing surface plate.

Does this include center/pumpkin studs installed? Does it include center/pumpkin copper sealing washers and lock nuts? Does it include T bolts and nuts for brake kit mounting? Does it include wheel studs? For those it does not, please provide P/N with No Answer.

What is the WMS measurement? Flange measurement of 56" is the axle housing's flange to flange, right? I want to see how the overall measurements match up to the 35 Chevy I will be building soon
