does this work?

Postby Roman » Mon Nov 29, 2010 9:23 pm

was doing some google research (wandering) and found this page about using Dodge D44 hub and rotor on chevy D44 large spindle to convert to 5x5.5

if so, what year dodge should I start fleecing?

I used a ford rotor and hub/bearings off any ford d44 on the chevy large spindle.

I thought you had to use the chevy small spindle or machine the large one to take the small inner bearing
