US Wheel Daytona's with their beadlock ring. I'm getting a fairly good price on them thanks to Brad. I'd like to have run something more blingy with ORI lasercut into them, but I'm not that cashed up at the moment. Might just have to settle with powder coating the locking ring yellow or something :P

Question

Hi Maddog, may seem like a stipid question, but doesn't the GQ run 16" wheels??

Just thinking that if you plan to run 15" wheels will the brakes fit inside the wheel?

(wish i was cashed up I'd be having them older axles off ya , if they were still for sale, or did you find a buyer?)

True GQs run a 16" from the factory, but a 15" will fit

Yep I got a buyer for the old diffs, he picked them up earlier this week.

That's the wheel it's a 6x5.5", they come in a 5x5.5" pattern as well though. I'll find out a price when the guy calls me back.

Looks like a great custom axle job MD....

after cracking a warn hub at JAD I'm thinking of upgrading myself, but am seroiusly short of funds to do so.

are the axles going to be wider than stock?

Good luck with it
