Ok, I may have made a mess of this. Bear with me. When I had my axle rebuilt, the guy asked me if I still had the original small bearing hubs, and I was sure I did. Turns out I don’t. The ones I thought were original are big bearing. Lots of parts here, but no small bearing hubs. Buy sell and trade a lot. I remember telling the guy I might just swap on some big bearing spindles, of which I have several. But he said that wouldn’t work because the knuckles are different. Is that true?
