Baystate Jeepers

So I finally found a right side drop 44 front end. WhoooHooo ! Is there a way to get to 5x5.5 (Another model) or should I just put my 30 spindles and outers on it ? Thanks FjR68

Are these what you are looking for? http://adaptitusa.com/

Thanks ,but I would need 6 to 5 lug 5.5. Its an Idea though. Ive heard nothing good about running with spacers. FjR68

I used 91 ford hubs and small bearing spindles (the ford hubs won’t fit the large bearing spindles). You can buy new small spindles Spicer PN 706528X or they can be had on any '74-'76 FSJ or '73-'76 chevy You can also machined down a large spindles. You will need the correct wheel bearings as well.

Thanks POSI : Dont the Fords have a long hub ? I does have the lockout hubs ? Do the hubs stick out of the wheel ? Are you saying the Ford and Chevy spindles will go on my knuckles ? Im so computer DUMB that I cant seem to be able to find this info on my own. Thanks FjR68

The 44 has internal hubs an improvement other the external hubs on a D-30.
Yes, the FSJ and Chevy small spindles will fit your D-30 knuckles.
The hubs do not stick out past the tire on a 10.50 wide tire

Below (link) is my front NT cherokee 44 I installed on my CJ5. I cut 4” off the diverside and I chose to use 44 knuckles to clear the aftermarket diff cover ( you can use D-30 knuckles).

I believe I covered most of your questions within a couple pages (19-20) of my thread below however, if you have any other questions post up and I'll do the best I can to answer. Hope this helps.

Side note: page 4 has the axle tube cut down process.
