rear wheel fitment II



I got the studs and spacers from summit.  The studs are just barely too long to get behind the hub and use the regular draw them in with lug nut method.  So axle out:



Diff cover off.  Remove the axle pin retaining bolt:

Axles out and press in the new studs.  It takes some attention for them to go in straight enough to not cause problems:


axles back in.  new spacers


After:

 

The wheels go on easily now and can be bolted down.  They are right out flush with the edge of the wheel well.  If they bump far enough they will probably rub, but for now, I think they are in the right spot.  If needed I can always face off the spacer a little in the lathe.
