Thread: 98 110 Wheel and swivel bearings

Yep,I think another give away is that it also runs ventilated front discs,which are only fitted to later models as well.The 92 model I have,has solid front rotors.So there are a lot of small differences.

Now I just have to work out what to do with the 92 model that I just bought,it has ARB lockers F & R but today I just found that it has a 10 spline in the front,supposedly fitted with MD front shafts and CV,but hard to tell as there are no identifying marks on the inner shafts.

yes but im pretty certain (at this stage anyway ) that is Solid disc front/drum rear, vented disc front/disc rear

drum rear = long stubs
disc rear = short stubs

Re your 92, Im guessing the CV is just an AEU2522? is it 23 spline imput?
post some pics mate and we will all chime in. What are your intentions for it? If they are MDE shafts, even 10 spline its not that bad? Or you could get some 24 spline side gears and get Barry at Hi-Tough Eng. to supply shafts???

thanks as always Wayne.

Yeah I am just thinking out loud
I haven't removed the CV from the shaft,so I am only guessing the fact that it would be 23 spline input.
I already have new suspension bits for it,the same that I have in the the other truck,I intend for it to be a "Tough Tourer" but not sure whether I will just go with 255/85/16's or go to 35's like the other truck,as I have 8" rims with 35's that I will be taking off my other truck,when I get around to fitting my beadlock rims.
It takes more than just 24 spline side gears apparently to convert the 10 spline ARB to 24 spline.So maybe an Ashcroft locker and axles and CV's may be the go
I won't leave 10 spline axles in there,no matter who made them,as I don't like the thought of being let down in the middle of nowhere.I would rather do it once and do it right.
Hmmmmmmm this is sounding like a project,maybe another underdrive is in my future

And yes I am sure you are correct regarding the stubs,and I have photographice evidence to back you up

The only negative I see to any of the HD aftermarket cvs is the fact they are "soft" for a reason and apparently dont take to HWY miles?? I would be interested to know if there are different hardnesses for Longfields, Rovering Tracks, Ashcroft, Kams (AFAIK all from the same USA manufacturer)

it is a shame we cant get genuine R06665 GKN's anymore and run the "fuse" stub

either way it sounds like a pretty capable tourer

btw, they definitely look like AEU2522, and they are genuine GKN....hang on to those buddy
