Technical Wheel adapter help

I want to run a 8" Ford rear but keep wide five wheels front and rear.. Anyone make a wheel adpt., 4.50 to Wide 5 ?

 

I believe Speedway Motors sells them.

 

Try speedway. It might be easier to go from 5 1/2 (Ford Bronco maybe) to wide five if you don't have the rear end already. Try a post on fordbarn as I recall people looking for this type of adapter.

**** Spadaro has some nice aluminum ones.

 

What about re-drilling the pattern? Theres a guy on here that sells a jig to do it yourself. I bought one and works slick!

 

I would get them from ****.

The Speedway ones are steel, and VERY heavy.

**** is on the board here. He's a stand-up guy, and a walking encyclopedia of automotive knowledge.

 

Yeah, except that Wide-5 pattern is 5-on-10-1/4"

 

And I will have aluminum adapter covers that look like original wide 5 hubs done in the next couple of months Jim Ford (55willys)

 

Yup Spadaro

 

get them from ****!! much better quality larry.
