[QUOTE="crash2, post: 770280, member: 15940"] How about some specs on what kinda rig you are putting it under. IMO the only place a full float is needed in under a competition rig(sp) or under a rig(sp) thats hauling a ton of weight. Yes you can change an axle but are you planning on carrying spares? Just get some good shafts and be done with it... Plus you will have ALOT less parts to worry about. Here is an example. On the outer part of a full float you have the spindle that is welded to the housing. you have a caliper bracket thats either bolted to the back of the backing plate flange or a weld on style. Then you have a wheel hub(which has an inner and outer bearing along with adjusting nuts/lock) and a rotor (and you have different ways of doing this). then you have the flanged axle. On a semi float you have just a weld on bracket and typically use dana 44 caliper and rotor (which you will need to have machined depending on the center of the axle) and then your axle shaft. There are lot of different vendors to go thru and I would need to dig thru some stuff to point you in the right direction... [/QUOTE]
