It looks like they swapped in 10 bolt axle tubes and had custom axles made. I though they were different diameter for the tubes though. Maybe they are custom with just an adapter for the housing end. Looks like good work though.
Somebody get Parish in here, I know he was interested.(NM he is already here )

Edit- after looking again they are a larger tube and they just fabbed the housing ends onto it. Looks like a real good finished product with a nice size axle bearing. They should be pressed on bearings also since there is no c-clip provision on a 10.5.

if not, there are many bolt-on disc brake conversion kits out there, my guess is that they would set this up any way you want.

Their site says "use your stock drum brakes", but I would think they could make it work. They also list a price of 1999.97, which is pretty reasonable to me. I would think the main difference would be the axle flange and housing end for disc brakes, neither should be that hard to change for them. Tapered axle bearings(non c-clip) and a 1350 yolk, sounds pretty tough.

I know of somebody who makes the 6 lug hubs for a 14bolt FF. Is that axle a semifloating axle?

TURBHOE

iTrader: (4)

yes its semifloat

It's semi float, but non c-clip. Also, unlike the 6 lug hub conversions you can use your stock wheels without the need for larger hub wheels. I also like the stock brakes, at least for the drum people as far as we know. I would imagine you can get the disc to work pretty easy.
