    Post by Guest Sun Apr 24, 2011 7:48 pm

    Hey all, new to the forum and in search of information. I have a '23 T-bucket hot rod with an all chrysler drive train (383/A-833) and what I'm assuming to be an old Dodge straight axle from a van/truck. My problem is I went to do wheel bearings and discovered the front hub is junk from the inner race spinning in it. Before I do any of the drastic shim/weld/machine/loctite/peen remedies I would really like to at least attempt to get the correct hub, problem is, I'm having trouble identifying the axle. The discard # on the drum is 11.090 (11" brakes?) with a "C10-773". I can't really seem to find anything by googling any of the numbers on the drum. I was told it looks like a modified 64-70 A100 axle....#2200 or #2500? It is 5 lug with a 4.5" bolt circle. I'm really no expert on this and it's been quite perplexing because the weather is starting to turn nice here in WI and I want to get the car back on the road! If anyone can positively Identify this axle or has a hub/drum assembly (or just a hub), I would be more than willing to buy it, or if you have any info on where to get one it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time!

    This guy came over from the HAMB, so let's help him!
    I too noticed the axle does not look like one of ours, but it could have been filled.
    However, the spindle and backing plate mounting look different too. Does someone have a good comparision shot that shows these details?

    No, they have a T profile to them, and the HAMB guys would have spotted them in seconds

    I'm wondering if it's an earlier design; the low mount of the steering arm, the cast in steering stop instead of the bolt like the A-100, the brake hose over the top of the spindle.... I'm just going by memory here
