    Still looking
    Did someone post on here that the axle bearing size is different on a 4 lug axle and a 5 lug axle making it where you can't put a set of axles out of a 5 lug housing into a 4 lug housing....If thats the case dose anyone make a bearing or has anyone done the research to see if they make a bearing that will work for the swap. :cry:
