Here are some pics of the 14b front build.
Also thanks to Childers Machine and welding for doing a fantastic job pulling the one tube and retubing the long side and using 3.375in, 1/2in wall tube.
the solid inner C tapped on before pressing. The short (drivers side) is 12in tube while the long side is a 24in tube.
One side pressed on and the other being aligned to have .2-.3 degrees lower caster to compensate for road crown.
Both sides fully pressed and upper kingpin installed along with the lower race and shield.
The crane revolution seal kit. It replaces the factory adjusters with ones that can hold a dana 60 seal.
The outers assembled without stubs. I machined the hubs down to accept a chevy 2500 HD rotor.
And finally the dry fit build without axle shafts. The calipers are the JB8 code and the pistons are 60mm diameter each. These calipers are huge. I am using the WFO concepts ford caliper brackets to mount the factory 2500 HD calipers to. i decided to get the JB8 calipers vs the JB7.
More to come as i finish the build this weekend.
