10 Lug Conversion for 65-91 4x2

For Sale a 10 Lug Conversion for all 65/91 (88-91 SBS) 4x2's

Converts your 65/91 5, 6, or 8 lug vehicle to the now popular 10 lug.

100% Bolt-in for all rear leaf spring trucks. if you currently have rear coils, then you will need to convert to leafs for this to work.

If you have a 65/72 as an added bonus you get power steering and front disk brakes if you didn't have them already.

This upgrades your rear to DISK brakes as well!

Upgrade is easy. I have done 2 so far. If you have a buddy, a cherry picker, good floor jack and basic hand tools, this is a saturday job. (not including nagging GF(s), wife(s), kid(s) and beer intake...) Worst part is spreading the spring perches (where the springs rest on the axle) out approx 1 inch each side.

Benifits... No unsafe adaptors to run. No undo stress on those light duty components that were not built to handle larger tires wheels...

About this setup...the frontend appears to be in good shape, (no wrecks etc) however one of the current RF tire show abnormal wear and I would replace all wear parts (ball joints, tie rod ends etc) just be be safe but might just be a bad tire, but I can't tell for sure... The rearend appears to be good shape, without excessive play. Rotors appear to be in good shape, but I would replace brake pads... No tires or wheels are included.

Both the frontend and rearend can be hauled in the back of an 8ft bed. If you would like the complete rolling frame, I would sell that too, but no tires/wheels in either case.

FYI, The front axle is currently set up for just 5 lug. The wheelbase is APPROX 134" (approx cause I was measuring by myself...lol)

$500 for just the axles, $750 for the complete rolling frame minus the tires/wheels. You can borrow the tires/wheels to load on your trailer. I have a wrecker available to load the axles in the back of your pickup

Cash, Paypal, credit or debit cards OK. Delivery might be available for extra $$$

5 7 3 - 8 4 2 - 9 5 4 2 NO TEXT!!!

I am located in St Robert, Mo 65584. You can use the Mapquest link here, http://www.mapquest.com/maps?zipcode=65584 to find where I am at and find the distance from you.

No idea on the yr of the chassis. It looks like it would take a 73-80 pickup front bumper real easy. I think this was a bread truck, but I can tell you for sure it had an all aluminun body, which the scrap guy got... It has/had 19.5 wheels.

Do you have a pic of the rear housing? Is it square or round tubes?
