Anyone had a problem fitting yukon shafts through the stock dana 44 spindle. I don't want to pound these in because I've already had to grind the ears off the busted stocker to fit those out. By the way I've got longfield u-joints.

I assume you mean knuckle? The spindles go on after the shafts are already in. You have to file/grind the knuckles a little bit. It doesn't take much.

Make sure you aren't killing the inner axle seal taking the axle in and out.

Later,

Thanks Mike,
I was just wondering if I was going to have to grind or not. No big deal, I was a little curious if others had encountered this before. You are right I mean the knuckle. I get confused by all these pesky part's names some times. Thanks again
