can you fit longfields cvs with free wheeling hubs to a 80 series front diff, the understanding that i had was the axel was longer and full time 4wd hubs needed to be fitted
thanks rob

Yeah can't see why not they just replace your std yota axle/cv no need for different hubs. You can run the FWH setup if it can be run with the std 80's gear

will this work with a marks part time kit?
i had to fit a shim to my cvs as they were longer. do longfeilds come in a shorter length ?

I'd say not. So you'd still have to use the shim if you had to previously as they are made the same size as std cv's. 30 spline's in lux they say you may need to do minor grinding inside knuckle as they are slightly bigger

When i run the longfields I coudn't run the FWH as the cv was longer in the spline on the end of the cv!!! What rob is asking is, Is there a FWH that go on the longer cv?? (you know the later cv that they put out to help with the wear in the drive flange on the hub)
I run the late model drive flang on my hilux only because i havent found a FWH to fitt the longfields.

Did you are using gold aisin hubs or the red ones .. ?
Anycase those Slee bierfields are desingned for Fultime 80 series, with or without part time conversion .. but it make the disclaimer about the wering in a DD ..
