H2 Rear WMS to WMS

[speedy]

looking for the wheel mounting surface to wheel mounting surface measurement for the rear end. Working on a project for Bebe's H3

Thanks

I'm getting 70.5" on mine. Swapping the rear axle?

Thank you Sir!!!:cheers:

Is that a rough estimate or ?

Yes we are.
Just finished off the 4th rear locker:giggle: Snow wheeling season is upon us and we refuse to spend anymore $ on the stock rear axle.
It's a time bomb running 38's:deadh:

Time to take the beast to the next level

The stock H3 axle comes in at 68.5 and the long travel front is 2" wider then the rear now.:giggle:

I measured outside of tire to outside of tire and then subtracted the distance from wheel mounting surface to outside of tire. I am pretty confident that it's right on. If I have time tomorrow before I go to work I'll jack the back up and pull the wheels off.

Sounds like it would be perfect!

Give it a couple of days before you go to all that work. Somebody else might have it.

Just need to be sure before we drop a grand on an axle:whaa:

Check with Serge, mb30sdl aka Hamster. Think he was going to put his H2 rear end in the 3T he bought. ORE was going to do it

Awesome, I will be watching this closely. one of the last runs with the stock front end my buddies heard a bang from the rear and supposedly the locker wasnt working. I then tried it on my final run and worked perfect.

When I did the SAS I opened it up to put in 5.13s and sure enough the holes are ovalling out and one is completely destroyed. I guess it doesnt engage on that hole and the others will soon go out. Seeing I will be stepping up in tire size this is right up my alley.

ABS plugs right in? Are you gonna drill holes on the flange to 6x5.5 bolt pattern?

That would be nice . Not counting on it.

Not sure if there's enough meat to redrill. Probably just get some yukon axles made.

lets see what today brings

Someone must need a tire rotation or a rear brake check.

Any help would be appreciated. :cheers:

 

[Scarsman]

Sorry! It's been a crazy work week for me. I'm off work tomorrow so I am going to pull the back wheels off. Figured it's a good excuse to check the axle seal I just replaced and make sure is sealed!

 

[speedy]

Thanks again
Hate to ask but it's a 3 hour round trip to the wrecking yard and spare time for us is also at a premium.

[Scarsman]

No problem at all! I'll have it by end of day tomorrow.

 

[Scarsman]

Here you go Speedy! Surface to surface is 70 7/8" or 180 cm. Let me know if you need anything else!

I gotta go measure what a stock H3 rear end is...just curious

 

[speedy]

Thank you for taking the time. Serge also got back to with the same.:cheers:

The width will perfect. Now to get those big brakes to fit in a 16"rim:whaa:

68.5 Wee One

 

[Scarsman]

That will be tight!

 

[speedy]

The H3 brakes barely clear the 16"rims.I have a couple of ideas.:huh:
