Default 02 FX4 Screw vs Single Cab LWB 7700..???

So i bought some parts from ckale and he has a 7700 series...noticed that the ubolts are to big for my axle and i was wondering if they sit lower in the front stock than my truck did because i also bought his stock steering knuckles..(the piece that you mount your hub to and the cv shaft slides through) would this be different than mine if so would it be a problem it seems alot lower than it was before i lifted it but i only have the front back together and on the ground>? can anyone help me answer these questions Thanks in advance

yikes that is a tough one to answer.

I know for the rear ends, the 7700 has bigger tubes so the u-bolts would be bigger in diameter as well as the mounting plates. As for the steering knuckles I can't answer that one, sorry.

Did you compare the parts side by side before installing the 7700 knuckles? I would thing they were the same????

Ah jeez man i didnt know about this. You shoulda texted me or somethin. The front spindels and stuff are the same as normal F150's, the 7700 package doesnt change any of the front stuff. I thought those U-bolts should work since the other u bolts (the rough country ones) fit fine on my truck.
