Man I got started putting my Spyntec hubs on today... I got one side done, and the hub/lockout sticks out 2" past the lug cap?? It is supposed to be the D0008S shorty kit?? I was not expecting anything more than the lockout cap to stick out.

Sure doesn't look like 1.25" more than angus. 

 

I didn't think so either!!!  I got my SpynTec kit and installed it in July, 2012.

Are you running a wheel spacer?

No, I`m not even sure I like the idea of wheel spacers but I nknow they are a neccessity with certain types of rims.

So is your hubs supposed to be the earlier version of the shorty??  The tech guy from Spyntec told me the new shorty measures 4 3/4" from the stud flange to the end of the hub... and that is according to him the only forging they sell now.

Been doing a little wheel research, and my OEM steel rims have a 6 1/2" back spacing. The H2 wheels in AH64,s link have a 5" back space.  I think that clears up the length issue.

Now I just need to decide if the "look" is worth a new set of rims

Finally got my truck back on the ground last night. I decided to try an old set of 2nd gen caps first to see how I liked them.. Interestingly it would appear that Spyntec designed their hubs for 2nd gens
