Thanks for all the info on the hub fitment. Is the spacer you purchased the "aftermarket Jeep part" you mentioned in an earlier post? That was my main concern for my wheels. I'm gonna try something a little different to avoid having the wheels/hubs machined.

Yup Yup, it was. I just made the assumption that the new hub would fit, that was my mistake, if I wasn't in such a hurry I would've sent it back and gotten a different hub. There's so many out there available that I'm willing to bet one can be had that won't require any machining to fit the stock wheels. But I own these now so I'm stuck machining a few thou off.

What are you going to try?

My buddy Jeff works at a local wheel and tire shop, he says he has a idea so I'm gonna let him do the brainstorming. I'll post as soon as I get the info.

Looky Looky Brian, just got one finished and one more to go.


I purchased some 5 lug hubs from Northern Tool that fit my axle and my friend AlmostStockFC (Jeff) ordered my spacer/adapters to keep the offset right and it still looks like there will need to be some machining/Dremeling (just a RCH). All in all I think it'll work.
