zeitgeist57 Posted August 10, 2014 Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) I am in the middle of lowering my 1982 Ford F100 with DJM Dream Beams from a 1995 F150. I'm really happy with the way everything is coming together until I realized that the bolt pattern is different!!! Please let me know if you have a pair (only need the front, the rear is still factory 5x4.5) of Ford 5x5" bolt-pattern E-150 or F-150 15" or 16" steelies with tires. Do not care about the tires as long as they can be driven for a couple of months before I get new tires all around. Thank you!!!

POS VETT Posted August 10, 2014 Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 Drill a 5x4.5 PCD on the new hubs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeitgeist57 Posted August 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 What's a PCD? I'd rather drill 5x5 pattern on the steelies I have... The problem is the 5x5 hubs go on the newer I-beams. If I could put the old 5x4.5 hubs/brakes on I would... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POS VETT Posted August 10, 2014 Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 PCD is Pitch Circle Diameter; wheel speak for "bolt pattern". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeitgeist57 Posted August 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 Thanks, Tom...however... - I would only need 2 adapters - I'd rather not spend $138 to get steelies rolling again on a 1982 ford tee-ruk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
