On the 2.5 ton rockwell axles I have a few questions. How do you make the rear and front axles the same width from wheel bolting flange to wheel bolting flange. Another is are they all 6.72 ratios? And I guess you can not rotate the pinion and count the revolutions of the wheel to get a gear ratio due to the top loader gearing. :confused:

They are all 6.72:1 and yes, you can still do the rotation trick even with them being top loaders.
To make the front match the rear, you flip the hubs of the front axle in so that they are on the way the rears are. The bearings are the same, aside from the width of them. it will all interchange just fine.

i was gonna keep my mouth shut about usa6x6, but can concur with rob, there are issues with them, and i wouldnt buy wheels from them. If you want custom wheels, get ahold of john at Stazworks. http://www.stazworks.com/
Ouverson sells the best rockwell parts made. i will be running his brakes, and 2" 41 spline shafts before long as well i'm sure.

Not sure if they do the wide rims or not, but they may just not advertise it. Seems like they do a lot more than they advertise. I have had good luck with them on some parts1994 YJ, 4.0, 5 speed.
