The decision to start a new thread is up to you. A minor straying from the original topic for a couple of posts is not a big deal.

The front spindle (or hub) nuts generally use the special socket that is deep enough and thin enough. You can usually find the correct one at your local auto parts store.

You really shouuld peruse my photo album. There are hundreds of photos there that answer 80% of the new guy questions that normally come up.

That's the actual measured distance from flat to opposite flat.

The front BO marker lamps will accommodate either lens kit.

I try to use the search function before starting a thread because I'm almost positive that others have asked the same question. It has worked at time and I've found the answer to my question. Other times I'm not so lucky. I've already opened your album in a new tab and am going to check it out. Thanks for all the help!

I did not refer you to the search program. I referred you to my personal photo album where there are several hundred technical military jeep photos organized into topics that will answer 80% of your questions.

I understand that. I'm just saying that is what I did in the past. Now that I know where to look for my answers before starting a thread, I'll do that from now on. :wink:
