I have a bent axle tube in my 2002 and i need to know what rear ends will fit. I was told 98 and down had different abs equipment but wanted another opinion. Thanks!

Click to expand...

You'll need a 99-04 because earlier axles were narrower flange-to-flange. The axle will bolt in but your wheels will end up further under the body.

It's not a ton -- 3/4" if memory serves -- and might be "fixed" with, say, rims with different offsets or even spacers to move the wheels back out.

But to do it "right", you'll need the New Edge axle back there.
