Why would a company do that?

I don't know keith, I don't quite get that either, maybe he was hoping that I would just run spacers. When I spoke to them the first time they said a 5.5" BS should fit. I told him I didn't think so and that I wanted to re-measure everything (for the 10th time
) before ordering. So I after veryifying my measurements, I called them back and told them that I did indeed need a 5" instead of a 5.5" BS and even explained the differences in the pre 71 rearends. Fast forward to yesterday, as soon as I unpackaged them I knew they were wrong, but I put them on the hub just to see. Sure enough they rubbed on the inside. So I call them up and tell them the mistake. He then tells me that he had 5.5 on the paperwork and I said I didn't matter what the paperwork said, I know what I told him. He said he would have to find that backspacing because he doesn't have anymore on the shelf. The clincher was when he told me that they NEVER had a problem with running 5.5" BS on this year model of truck. Maybe it's the difference of the burb and the truck, I don't know. I do know that I'm not running spacers....

I agree and I would also send them an email with your exact specifications, just in case there is an issue after they arrive.
