Good morning! I am new here and was hoping that someone could tell me if there is a backing plate or something to change the hubs on my 65 base model from 4 lug to 5 lug without having to change the hubs, spindles and Axles? Any input would be helpful.Thanks. 65er.

I’ve never heard of such a thing. Maybe wheel spacers with 4 to 5 lugs, but that will create an issue for the bearings as to the load center. I believe the only path is the change you’re trying to avoid. Good luck.

Hey Mcmahst! Thanks for the response and info.It would probably be easier to just stay with 14 in / 4 lug. I had heard that getting 14 in . Tires can get a little difficult hence wanting to do the change!

Yes they are. Coker tire is the go to for tires that appear correct for those vehicles. Good luck.
