5 lug conversion

[Letmeaddem]

I've been struggling to find some good 6 lug wheels that I like and the ones that I have found are way too expensive. Anyone have a blueprint on a 5 lug conversion ?

have been reading about swaping toyota hubs onto the mitsi/d50 spindle. Just need to swap the bearings

maybe a small bit of machining to get the bearing race to fit 100%?

Oh hell yeah man that's a big help ! There's a few shops near me that might be able to do that I'm gonna ask around

Looks like if you source the parts it's an afternoons job, for the front at least.

Now I'm wondering about Toyota brake conversions...

Yeah that's what I'm thinking too no more than two days for the front and rears but we'll see. Toyota brakes ? Are you trying to convert to rear disks or just bigger brakes ? Cause for the rear you can get the rear axel out of a montero to you'll also get a lsd

No I'm thinking front. I have a 2nd gen LSD in my 1st gen and a 2nd gen front end to play with. Just wondering about fitting some 2 or 4 piston brakes other than the Montero ones
