Default Will ap2 rear hub/knuckle work ln ap1

My question is about the rear hubs. I need a driver side rear hub/knuckle. I cant for the life of me find a ap1 one. I know the ap2 hub will bolt in no problem. But the part numbers are different and I know they revised the ap2 rear suspension to get rid of the toe problem. I have searched and keep getting contradicting information.

Can I put in an ap2 hub without having my rear alignment on that side being out of wack?

Thanx

The changed the rear upper control arms and the mounting points on the sub frame. The knuckle, hubs and lower arms are all the same for all years.

They are interchangeable.
The knuckles are diff.
Ap2 help with the toe.

This was confirmed by RobiSpec.

Ap2 do have diff upper rear control arm and diff crossmember. Same UCA as ap1, they just use a wider bushing, and made the cross member brackets for UCA wider to accommodate this.

They are interchangeable.

Can I have one AP1 and one AP2 Hub Assembly? My bearing on the drivers side is shot and I bought a used assembly (AP2). Will this mess my alignment up? Just to clarify: They are different part numbers but are interchangeable? Please advise.

Thank You

Make sure you torque down the hubs to 250+ ft/lbs as this may have led to the failure if they weren't before.
