Drilled and now tapping the other spindle for my pusher bolts.
Like I said on the other spindle, I'm not going through that problem of getting the spindle off anymore. No banging anymore, Hoo RA.
I don't even wont the pusher bolts to be a problem, so anti seize goes on.
After cleaning up the spindle down to shiny metal...you guessed it, anti seize.
I made sure the pusher bolts were not past the flange, that would not be good to torque the spindle down, only to have those bolts sticking out.
Now after it was torqued down, then I tightened pusher bolts tight to flange.
Also a spindle kit was installed which included the inner roller bearings.
I've finally have the rear center section done and getting ready to put the cover on.
The axle will be slid under and finally hook-up for the last time tomorrow.
I'll go to Fastenal and get some good American made grade 8 bolts for the 4 link.
Not going to use any of those China made grade 8s that you buy by the pound. I seriously don't think they're up to grade.
Even though I don't have the 5 x 5.5 rims yet, I'll have all 4 links hooked up and the coilovers. This way I can take out the Jack stands out from under frame and put the stands under the axle tubes and let the axle support the truck.
I'll set the axle at 16" off ground as if it had tires on it.
I know I'll have to adjust the coilovers cause I built in a little lift in the mounts.
Also I can see how much if any that I need to trim the fenders being that the axle is moved forward.
Since I used more DOM tubing for the engine cross member mount, I'll have to order some more for the track bar from Speedy metals.
A little tip...If one was to do any kind of axle install and you don't have a dolly like you see the axle sitting on...buy or make one, yes it's just that important. Especially if your doing it alone.
