The spindle nut socket is the same for a dana 60 and 14 bolt ff. Spindle nut is interchangeable as well, either use a dana 60 part number or gm 14b. Easy to keep a spare for front or rear. Verify correct years, the spindle nuts do have different variations. Watching from Maple Hill, Kansas!
Hey Poots you said that you had to take the hub and rotors down to another shop to have put together??? You have a new air hammer that you got to take off all the frame rivets didn’t you?? That is all I do is set the hub on a block of wood put the brake rotors onto the hub and put the studs into all the holes and then put them in with the air hammer on the back side of the wheel studs!!! That’s how I do it but before I found one of the most powerful air hammers I would just use a big piece of round stock or a really big punch and a sledge hammer and pound the wheel studs in that way!!! Not that hard at all!!! Just make sure that the new wheel studs are the Wright ones and not way over sized!!! Hopefully that helps out for next time!! Oh one last thing when you go to put rear end gear oil into the diff I always lift up the same side of the axle as the fill holes on about an inch or two while the other side is still on the ground!! That way you can get enough gear oil into the diff, the axle tubes, and also all the way out and into the hubs with the outer wheel bearings!! If I remember Wright if you was to fill up just the diff and then tilt the axle so that you don’t have to sit and weight for the gear oil to flow all the way down the axle tubes and into the hubs it should be about another quart to a quart and a 1/2of another quart!!! That has worked out best for me every time doing rear axles!!! I’m in New Virginia, Iowa!!! I’d love to see my pin on the map!! South of Des Moines, Iowa!!
I’ve pounded enough studs in and out with a hammer in my time and knew I didn’t want to do 16 big ones in a row, 😂. Good tip on the gear oil, I’ll definitely do that.

The socket for tightening the locking nut is dirt cheap so there's no excuse for not using one to torque the adjusting nuts down.😒
Hey you cracked me up with the light instructions! The egg break was fabulous...!
Watching from Tarsus , Turkey … thanks for the great stuff 👍

Love the K30 build! I’m in the process of getting my k10 reliable enough to make it into a one ton overlander. I’m out in Mesa AZ
Cool, reliable is more important than capability, sometimes
Lol had me crackin up. I never understood the large paper of instructions/warnings when the item is something simple.
We live in a goofy world…
BEAUTIFUL OL K30!!
Thankyou!
Great progress, tempting me to do my rear DISC setup on my 67 C20 (San Diego CA)
I wouldn't hesitate

Do you not have to pack those bearings with grease?
@@backyardbowties no, they get oil from the axle housing.

Just a little RTV since I didn’t use a gasket
What was the part # for the wheel studs?
Couldn't tell ya, they came with the kit.
