yup put the pinion and center shaft coupler on before assembling the rest of the diff case.

i went to grind down the stock plastic spindles and measured them, They were already at 11.31 mm stock. So i also noticed the wheel already rubs on the inside and out so one would not gain much more by gringind the stock spindle down for the wheel would rub on the arm even more.

IMO grinding the stock plastic's is not needed.

why do you think they went to alum spindles with stock plastic caster blocks? it gave you more throw, your doing the same here but without the weight of the alum

i know this is probably a stupid question but i just wnt to see if you guys know before i have to tear my truck down to find out!.....

are the holes for the hinge pins thicker in diameter on the a-arms for the 2.0 than the 1.0?....same with the holes for the rear hub and the front carriers...are they bigger in diameter?...

frankrizzo 11-08-2010 09:50 PM

the rear hubs on the 2.0 use a bigger hinge pin,
inners are the same

well i heard that the mc2 rear outer hub pins are good but from what i heard you have to drill a big hole for them to fit.

i use, the the 2.0 hubs and 2.0 outer pins but i did dremel off the 4 hole on the hub to make it just 3 holes so i can use the same camber link/hole on the hole.
