hub dimensions

[blazin_blazer]

i'm lookin at some rims that state: Center Bore Diameter (in):5.150 in.

is this big enuff for a d60f/14bff hubs.....any1 know the hub measurements for these 2 axles?

any1 know the d60f and 14bff hub diameters?

are the center bore being 5.150'' big enuff for the dana60f and 14bff? i need to get these rims ordered

Sounds big enough to me, but I don't have any exact measurements for you. 8 lug rims are pretty universal though, except for ford's metric ones.

hmmm...i have a set of ford 8 lug that will fit my 3/4 tons(but everything held by the lugs b/c center to big), but my 8 lug gm will not fit a ford b/c of center hole to small,,i hate to get these and dana hub be to big, rim to small

Can't you measure your hub or your old rims?

pretty sure the hub diameter of a dana 60 is 4"

but i could be wrong. The wheel opening should be plenty big.

Yep and a 14FF or 60FF is around 4.1 or 4.2

Didn't even think about the back

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The easiest way to tell a D60 from a D44 is the diameter of the hub. Lug pattern alone is insufficient as there were 8 lug D44s.[/FONT]

thanks guys, i did measure the center hole on my stock steel wheels, the gm rim was 4 7/8''...the fomoco rims were 5 1/16''....i wasnt sure if the 8 lugs for the 10b 8 lug would fit the d60...the gm 4 7/8'' fits the center hubs pretty snug and the fomoco wheel has @ 1/8'' gap around the hub, causeing all the load to be carried by the lugs since it doesnt fit center hub snug.

i just went and remeasured...gm=4 3/4''

 

[blazin_blazer]

fomoco=5''

angle makes it look smaller, its dead on 5''....

 

[blazin_blazer]

gm rim on axle...no gap

 

[blazin_blazer]

the fomoco being @ 1/4'' bigger has 1/8'' gap around the hub(no pic),is d60 hub bigger?

 

[sandawgk5]

gm rim on axle...no gap

The 60 hub is smooth it does not have that radius where the rim mounts like your 44 hub does. Basically a 60 hub is as big as the hub radius on your 44.

i see a red x??? if you dont erase the http:// 1st thats in the spot before pasting link it has 2 http and won't show pic...took me forever to figure that out... so the rims from a 3/4ton will fit a 60...

How about this picture. Same description as above.

i went to properties of red x and post link to location

edit:tells me i dont have permission to see it tho

i see that 1...no radius indeed, so u think the radius diameter of the 3/4 ton is same as d60 hub w/o radius so they could use same rim on 3/4 & 1 ton, guess i about to order those from summit(2.5''bs), i'll only use them until 60% of tread left is gone...then i'm going 16 or 17'' dc-1 black w/ new tires!
