Re: 14 bolt 8 lug to 5 lug conversion

Not sure what custom axles cost - i assume you want the 14 bolt to handle power?

I used quick performance in Ames IA to rebuild my stock 10 bolt - put new gears, the truetrac diff, new yukon axles, new bearings in it. Said it would probably handle almost double the hp I was planning on. I just have a 5.3 with a cam upgrade so I'm around 350-375hp. I feel good knowing I'll never break it.

For this rebuild it was around $1,500. Maybe something to consider vs trying to make a 14 bolt work - the custom 14 bolt parts may cost you more than building something that naturally would fit (the 10 bolt).
