Hello! I am wanting to use the 32-34 spindles because of the integrated steering arm, but would like to use 36 wide five drums. I know 36 wide 5's have a longer outter bearing snout that 37-39.

Think I'll run into an issue? I'll be using 39 Lincoln backing plates with the spindle bolt spacing adjusted for the 32-34 spindle, so backing plate is no problem.

Thanks!
