You need a dv888(done), a stacked Plastic Grind Machine(for donor parts) and then you’re good to go, if I understand properly.

You can buy the longer axle, but then you’d need to buy the stacks, rings and bearings, and then you need the posts. The hard part is getting the posts, and that’s why it ends up being cheaper to get the PGM for parts.

Hubs tacking a dv888 is cool, but gets old fast. If you really want to, go for it, but you’ll have to butcher a pgm,

My opinion?

No. Ain’t worth the hassle. If you want to go have fun with stacks, just get the PGM for the PGM and stacks. That’s why I got it.

Then again, I like to keep my stuff as stock as possible. I don’t consider things like silicone for response and bearing changes to be real mods or takes away from being stock.
