Re: So I bought this K5 that someone started to convert to 2wd...

I have been making pretty good progress but have decided to keep the leaf springs out back for now.... since the flip had already been started(just bolted, no welded on axle pads yet....)

I wasnt really happy with how the axles on top of the leafs set in the fenderwells(wheels are offset alot to the front of the fender opening)....

So I bought a new set of axle saddles,offset drilled the axle centering hole 1",this stretched the wheel base slightly but centered the rear tires much better....



So now my only question I have is... can I swap the axleshafts and drums from my 5 lug 2wd axle, into my original 4x4 axle?
