Exclamation Dana 60 Disc conversion Stud length
Ok soooooooooooo I'm in the process of converting over to the rear Dana 60 on the truck. I purchased the Cheby front rotors but my issue is the wheel stud length. Did I miss someting? or are the original Ford ones not long enough?

Yes. It goes stud, rotor, then hub. I used a press for the studs.

Ok I'll give it another try. Maybe I got the wrong studs form the auto parts store.
