5 lug didn't come w/ rear trailing arms and I'm guessing that I'm missing the spindles? What goes in the middle of the 4 bolts that bolt onto the rear trailing arm?


Any help/info would be appreciated

PM me and I'll go look at mine tomorrow morning. I can't remember right off the top of my head. I'm only helping you because you have the same shoes as me though.

more pics to help out!!!



and yes I do have the rotor and caliper...just took them off for the time being. I don't see how the middle bolt fits into the middle. I know there are supposed to be 4 torx bolts that bolt onto the trailing arm but I have nuts as you can see on the pic?!?!

Okay looking at my helms this is what I see.

You need the trailing arm. It will have the rest of what you need if you have everything from the splash guard forward (disk and whatnot).

In my Helms the disk and drum rear trailing arm look the same to me.

EDIT: What I'm saying is that it looks to me like that should go right onto the trailing arm.

Quick ? Can you use ek drum e brake lines on the 5 lug disk? If so, how?

I don't think so.

hmmm so you are saying that it looks like I can just unbolt my drum assembly from my stock trailing arm and put this 5 lug one on?

It 's just weird becuase reading from what I've searched throught the forums that I would need to attach the four bolts as seen in the pictures I have posted as well as the 24mm (?) nut in the middle but it is absent on my 5 lug disc assembly.

I have everything (rotor and caliper, e-brake and brake lines) that I need for the swap. Looks like I'll have to see for myself if it will work or not w/o that center nut.

I think you may be confusing the fronts and the rears. On the front there is a 32mm axle nut that goes through the hubs. Take a look at your front brakes. (under the centercap on your rims if you have one).

The rears don't have this.

looking at this pic from chameleon:


He removed the whole drum assembly from the trailing arm and there is that hole in the middle. I was thinking that something is supposed to go through there.

If you can post those pics Ricey McRicerton I would appreciate it

you're wrong, the rear hub is held on by a 32mm nut.

the raised center sits in the hole in the trailing arm like a wheel sits on the center of the hub looks like you have every thing to bolt the axel to the arm. no you need disc brake e-brake cables.

i wish my shel toes looked that good

assman_91

your drum brake trailing arms will bolt up to your 5lug spindle.

but taking the trailing arm out is fairly hard because if there is rust, cuz those torx bolts are hoes. strip so easy

and no, you cant use your drum ebrake cables with this setup, because its different.

good luck
