Before
deciding to perform this simple mod.
In my opinion, flipping the rear hubs is not worth the risk of
the the cost of repairs if one "or more" axles or CV's break.
The cost can be in "multiples" of $375+.
Flipping the hubs, will gain only 1/2" of GC.
That equates to a 750:1 Risk/Function factor, or $750 / inch.
The axles are already stressed to their limits, 1/2" of GC just isnt
worth that kind of bux.
If you do decide that the risks are worth the small gain in your
situation, the mod is very simple and only takes a few minutes to
perform.
NOTE that: (You must have offset wheels
or wheel spacers to perform this mod)

Raise the rear end of your Grizz and remove a wheel on either side.
Remove the two bolts from the rear hub assembly as shown in the photo
at the right. (You do not have to remove the axles or anything like
that)
Turn the hub upside down and replace the bolts.
Replace the wheel and repeat the process on the other wheel.
