Isn't the mounting surface for the backing plates different between the 10 bolt and 14 bolt?

And just to reiterate, I'm running Oakley's custom aluminum backing plates with 1990 silverado front disc brakes and rotor.

The offset is different, but since axis is making you an axle he can weld a flange wherever you need it.

Youre missing the point george.

Your 14 bolt is the axn hybrid axle which uses the smaller 10 bolt tubes.

The 9.5 14 bolt from a 2500 has a bigger housing
