    Hi All...

    Does any one know what the lug pattern is for a 51 Dodge? Is it 5x5.5? Is it the same as fords of the same time? Thanks!

    I used to have a 50 Chrysler Windsor. It had the standard 5 on 4.5 lug pattern. The only thing was,it had an alignment pin which could be knocked off with a hammer. If your running unilug wheels with a Ghevrolet/Mopar(Ford) Bolt pattern the alingnment pin doesnt need to be removed. Rememebr that even on those old Mopars,that the drivers side lugs are left hand thread and the p***enger side is right hand thread.

    The early mopar lug pattern is the same as Ford , AMC,early IH 1/2 ton pu's. The Mopar center hole is slightly bigger than the Ford & AMC. I put 15" Ford wheels on my 55 PU, they worked fine after grinding out the center hole approxemently 1/8 of an inch. Hope this helps.
