Re: RE: Re: will non turbo multifuel accept a turo setup?? my friends call it "the rocket deuce" it totally keeps up with cummins powered five tons on 14.00-20s

the rear spindles wont come off the rear axle housing. the brake backing plates are whats riveted on to the rear. if you destroy a rear spindle you have to change the entire rear housing out. it kinda sucks, you would think they would have engineered this better to avoid major feild repairs. the...
