How to fit pre-2017 axle back to 2017+
I'm sure someone has already tried this.
Is it an easy modification? Can't seem to find a video on how to do it. |

Just need to widen the holes in the flange a bit. Several people have done it without issue.

I did this. I had an axleback that showed up and was 2017+ It wasn't worth sending back. Widened the holes and used some hi temp gasket maker. It's still there. |
