    There are a few things that can go wrong...

    Wheel spacers that are not hub centric
    Not using lug centric lug nuts
    Not dropping the center support on the driveshaft
    Needing a drive shaft spacer

    That should get you started..

    P.S. If it doesn't spin or rotate it can't be the problem...

    Thank you. Would you recommend a cb drop or driveshaft spacer? I only have these vibes when braking

    Help.

    I can't unscrew this end break line on the caliper side. I have a 10mm socket/open end wrench but not a 10mm flare-nut wrench (5 sides). I fear continuing to force the bolt will strip the edges. How are you all getting this off?

    Here's the frame side brake line bolt
    [​IMG]
    This one came loose with a monkey wrench...
    [​IMG]
    I got the bulk of it done but this last part is driving me crazy.
    I've never "bled" break lines before so I'm assuming I need brake fluid to refill the reservoir, right?

    Let me just say, if anybody would like to come down and help me with the passenger side you're more than welcome :)

    I did it for him in about 20 minutes. lol he had to do one spindle put it on the ground and then move the truck to do the other side. So I did both brake lines and then bled them for him... it was a tight squeeze on the side against the wall and the tire still on.

    I was able to remove one side using vise grips but I don't recommend doing that. Go to sears and buy a small diameter flare nut wrench set and use the proper tool for the job. You'll be happier when you don't strip anything :)

    Ya Mike turned my 2 hrs of madness into 20 min. Very skilled mechanically, but now that I've seen how he did it by removing the metal tabs, vice grips + 12mm open wrench, and turn opposite directions with maximum power I can do it now.
    Speaking of, I have your back pack at home Mike but I've been unable to return it with crazy work hours.
