Full Time 4WD to Manual Hubs

[Buckshot0351]

Got rid of the full time hub set up on my 75’ K20 and installed Warn Premium manual hubs. I had to change spindles to the big bearing and got new hubs too. This isn’t fitting together quite right and was hoping someone had done this before and can explain what needs to change and happen to do this conversion. If i typed out everything i did it would be a big wall of text that no one would read. Im hoping that if someone shares their experience i can find what went wrong with mine. Thank you in advance.

Changed parts:
Big bearing spindles from a 78’
New hubs that sit in the rotors for the new spindles.
New rotors for a 75’ (i think, i can’t remember if i got ones for a 78’) that seem to be to thick for the new calipers that are jb6.
I reused the caliper mounting bracket.

Its like the hub/rotor wont push onto the spindle properly and it it sits out to far by about 1/4”. I really had to force it on there to get enough thread for the wheel nuts to go on and there isn’t enough axel stub shaft sticking out to use the snap ring to sit in the grove on the axel stub. Maybe thats not needed with this set up anyway? I just have the big slip ring that pops into the outer hub holding the warn hubs in.

Any advice is appreciated.
