Hey Dorkweed!

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.

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 :broke:

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 genspost-732-0-59615200-1430614581_thumb.jpgpost-732-0-65941200-1430614631_thumb.jpg
