Is anyone out there selling 5 lug conversion parts?
Stub axles, rotors etc, all ready to bolt together? |

You will have to find someone not completing a project in most cases. It is getting harder to scrounge up parts from the 70's. If you do find them they can be pricey.

Front is just drilled out rotors if I recall. Rear is new stub axles, and new rotors....I think. I believe the axles stay the same... I am not looking for bigger brakes, the ones I have still stop the car fine. Just want to change the wheels over for the new flares now... It's that slippery slope I am sliding down, so I am sure the avalanche will start one of these days... Fr now I want to put on bigger wheels with no adapter plates....cause those just keep me at 7 inch wheels....which makes the flare a waste of time IMHO. Where is Eric, this was supposed to get him to speak up. Rich |

Just to fit wheels....so super simple.
I have all nice suspension, new brakes etc from years of slow restoration. Then....I bought flares. I put one of them on....now I need to commit. 5 lug wheels with spacers/adapters push a 7 inch wheel all the way out to the lip. No good, I am putting wide wheels on, so I need to go to 5 lug drilled out parts. I even have a mill, but just no time. Let me see if I have all the parts I need and I may have a local shop do it, or even better would be Chris....he will make sure they are right.... Rich |
