Question:
I am looking to replace leaf springs and axle with a torsion axle and 13inch wheels with radials. Can you give me a suggestion? I currently have 5x4.5 hubs with new bearings on a 2inch square axle I believe to be original. Thanks

We have the Timbren Axle Less kit part # A35RS545 which is similar to a torsion setup that comes with hubs that have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern as well. In general the axle-less kits have a better ride quality than torsion axles and also has better ground clearances as well so this would be what I would recommend over the torsion setup.
I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.
