8-lug-Yukon
Newbie
I have done a swap and I've run into some small problems. I still have a lot of work to do.
but I've taken the 6 lug spindles and cv axles (working on doing the front Diffendal)
currently sitting on 8 lug wheels and it will roll. The front axle nuts are torqued to spec according to the 2500 specs, they are stiff and hard to turn.
I have loosened them up and still they are stiff to turn
second issue is that I am concerned about the 2500 upper ball joints may not fit in the 1500 control arm. as the upper control arms were different widths I could not just swap the 2500 ones in the Yukon. any information is appreciated
I have been stalling on the project for a couple of months now, but I recently had to go out and move it and now I want to get it on the road again. but with those two issues in the front I worry it will be dangerous for others around me.
I don't want anyone getting hurt because I did not think of something thoroughly.
and the red wheels are gone they were a test fit for the axle swap
i am new to this forum and will be updating and sharing more information on this swap in the future.
