Well it is 8 inches... and so are my rims.......

Does anyone want G4 rims? I need some 16x7 steel wheels like the ones AB sell.....

No they are not in good shape..they are in excellent shape. I just went outside to take pictures of them. Excuse the brake dust of the front wheels...

One wheel as two scuff marks from a rubber mallet I used trying to remove the lug nuts. The spare is in excellent shape too... Let me see how many children and body parts you will need to sell in order to get these shipped to you... what is the shipping zip code ??

29621...I've been looking for a set of these (I made a thread about these wheels over the weekend). Let me know what you need for them and the shipping.

How much did you put in your rear diff? I put 1/3 a bottle in my rear diff hopefully I will not see that leak again. I don't feel like pulling off both hubs.

I 1st replaced the hub o ring. I can remove the entire hub together with axle still intact in about 15 min or less (no need to un-torque the axle nut. 7 times of practice and you'll be able to do the same =).

Anyway after I replaced the O ring, still leaked. I noticed there was an imperfection in the actual axle casing on the inside where the hub bolts onto the axle. I put RTV on it and still leaked. Then I bought a used hub and still leaked but it slowed it down (with a second new o ring). Finally i took a dremel and I smoothed out the imperfection and re-applied RTV, 3rd new o ring and the leak substantially slowed even more. almost one drop every few days/ or once a week.

Disco Mike then told me about WS and I was only able to put probably about 1/3 or less (since some poured out) and it leaked for about 2 more days and then it stopped. same with transfer case. I did this in late May 09. i was just under my rig looking at the hub and t-case and it it dry!

However, I used the $20 8oz bottle https://gouniversalproducts.com/prod...Stop-leak.html

I have a bottle of the WS steering stop leak that is $10 that claims to be good for t-cases, axles, etc.. and I will be be putting some in a DI that is seeping t-case fluid.
