A 92 model does not have a solid axle unless it has been swapped.

What do you have?

That looks like the sky kit. Your looking for a ifs hub. That Picture is an IFs hub with the sky spacer pushing the brake rotor back into the stock SFA location.

Hot link them?

Upload them to a photobucket account, then copy the "img" code and paste it in your post.

Easy peasy...

I'm thinking of a word right now, what is it? See? Dumb, aint it?

wouldnt that be an IFS hub since the rotor is spaced back??if it was a SA hub you wouldnt need to space the rotor but would space out the wheel to get the extra length.

Ifs hubs will work, but you have to modify break caliper is mounted or buy the fancy sky kit.

Ifs vs solid hub



How to make them work w/o the kit.
