hub convertion kit
almost everything is here, they had to send my axle from somewhere elce and it didnt come with everything elce, going to get more greas heavy duty knuckles and my brake pads and get it all on tomarrow morning... hopfuly if its not raining. my hubs dont look like they will stick out much farther then my caps but ill know for sure tomarrow.
To run these hub I would definitly run 10 inch wide wheels or the hubs will stick out. My wheels are 10 inch wide wheels. I still need to drill out my hub caps to fit over the hubs.




Had to do some grinding on the outer axle to get it to fix through the knuckle.

ok so u got the extreem duty set for yours, ya my kit doesnt look like itll stick out as far but i wont know till its on, i just got the heavy duty. not gona use the truck as a rock cralwer or anything so didnt see the need to spend the extra money for my setup. i think ill get my driver side done today and get some pics up but still waiting on the axle for the cad delete so i can only do so much today
ya i thought ems had one... shouldnt need it unless ur going to be rock crawling or really beating it in 4 wheel. anyway, got the kit instaled as well as the shocks, took a test drive deffinetly feel a difference, took a little drive twords the sight i work at, its all about 55mph so i do a little over, overhead ushuly says im doing 18 tonight it sad a little over 20, ill let u guys know what i get after a few tanks
they have them for the 99s like mine so id think they have them/ can get them/ or are in the prosses of getting them for the newer yr trucks. call them up and ask. that guy seems to always be working and they are really helpful
FYI, because someone asked earlier: If your truck was built before 1 Jan 2002, it will have the vacuum disconnect system (CAD, or Central Axle Disconnect). If your truck was built later, like mine, then it will NOT have this "feature" (thankfully) but rather the front end parts are constantly turning and the only thing changed when you engage 4wd is the t-case.

I havent had a chance to get back much on this thread. I have the ems kit also. On the 03 it has the stock rims wich are probly what 7 inchs id assume. Mabey it wouldnt look so bad on an 8, and definatly not to bad with a 10. I dont have any pics of them, im still not up to speed with technology, dont onw a digital camera. You should pick up a mile or two in mpgs.
