Re: aam rear axle

I think the center pilot on the SF 14 is smaller diameter like the 5 lug setup so I don't see using the 12 bolt brakes. But the SF 14 should have bigger, better brakes. I did use my original parking brake cable on my 14 so no mods to that were needed. I cut off the original perches and reused them because it's a 3.25" tube axle and not 3". I don't like the newer style shock mounts so I used a set cut from a junk 12 bolt and rotated them where they don't hang below the axle tube for max clearance offroad.
