Default DS A-arm Lift Mistake

I have made a bonehead move when ordering a lift for my cart. I have a '91 DS and somehow put in my cart a 2005+. It is a Jakes 4" double A-Arm lift.
I ordered this in June and am just now getting around to installing.
It is a very nice kit and was very happy until I went to re-install the hubs.
I believe the only real difference is the spindle size and I could just change the bearings in the hubs.
Does anyone know the proper bearing size by chance? Or is the consensus that these should be changed out? I hesitate to do this as I don't want to put this in the lap of the seller and I, as well, dont want to take the hit financially, though I understand this was my mistake.


Sorry if I left out any pertinent information.

Thanks for any help!

Sounds like you need to contact David Hicks at Revolution. He's a site sponsor and probably know CC parts better than just about everyone.

Agree, you likely can just get two newer style hubs and be Good to go.

If you purchase the newer style hub it will mount right up and solve that problem.

I have an extra new set of Jakes spindles for an older DS. They came with my lift kit but I also got the front disk brake kit that had another set with caliper brackets. I’d let them go at a very reasonable price.

Thank you all for the replys! I have ordered new hubs. hopefully can complete this project this weekend and move on to getting the precedent lifted. I have been holding off on that and when I got the chance to get this older DS at a reasonable price I wanted to try out the lift on that and see how I liked it. It was so easy (except In my haste I ordered wrong) I am quite upset at myself for waiting so long to buy and install the Precedent one.
Anyway, thanks again for the advise!
