5 lug to 6 lug Wheel Adapters - HOW TO INSTALL - Do They Work
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In this video I will show you how we installed some 5 lug to 6 lug wheel adapters on this SUV, the SUV in the video was a factory 5 lug, they are way more deals out their for 6 lug rims than 5 lug, that is why we did the 5 lug to 6 lug converison.

Reminds me of a 19 year old in his dads Cummins from 99, with 20 inch offsets
What’s the link to the spacers
What size allen do those arrowhead bolts need?

I don't remember, I thought I said In the video but I may of forgot, I have another video on same subject where I may say the size, I was installing the front in a storm
Would you say it safe to use on a day-to-day basis not necessarily for off-roading

No, I don't think wheel spacers are safe, but higher quality ones seem to hold up, sometimes they no other options for a certain style rim in a certain lug pattern so people use spacers
Got a link for the adaptor kit 🙏

Anybody know where I can get them same Allen bolts on the adapters. I’m rebuilding my suspension and stripped a couple with how rusty they got

@@TattsForLife - Yes, like the hyper-stupid 5X135 on the early 2000's F-150...... the best selling truck in the country. Ford engineers must have been on acid or post-partuming or something. There are almost NO aftermarket wheels for this pattern. Curse you, Ford.

this set if working good, the small bolts tend to round off if over tighten and that makes them a pain to take on and off if you need to replace brakes

I don’t like this idea! Does anybody do this the correct way…swapping out the rear end and front rotors for 6 lug?

Isn’t hard get a rear drop yours out throw the new one in when you get the front hubs get the 2500 light duty hubs they are interchangeable
This is awful and very dangerous.

I agree, wheel spacers can be dangerous, why you always got to keep a check on your wheel spacers, and why most all wheel spacers are off road use only
I don't have that much faith in those little allen head bolts. The sheer strength of those bolts wouldn't survive one pothole. The rim isn't being supported by the center bore or anything, just those 6 tiny bolts.

In ky they hit a pot hole every few feet lol, but I agree with you I would not do anything like tow or go off road with the spacers, I ended up swaping the rearend to a factory 6 lug one

How do I remove those Allen screws? It's tough to do so... impact strips them and to much elbow grease tends to strip em also or not even budge them
