I contacted two places that make front hubs for various vehicles to see if they have anything that will work for us Luv people that want to switch to a 5 lug front hub and dont want to hassle with finding a machine shop to rework the old hubs. Ill let you all know if they have something for us.

That would be cool if they did. I would like to have SS Craigers all around but I need the five lug in the front.

The hubs that wre listed were $300 and up. Not cheap, but I havent been contacted back by either yet probably due to the holiday. Cross our fingers and hope I guess.

I just got a reply from the first place that quoted a price and turns out to be just a damn spacer/adapter. That place was Motorsports Technology. The other also replyed today and they actualy dont do hubs either for Isuzu, only Mazdas(?) They were some custom shop in CA.

All that i have been able to find is adapters because no shops i asked want to be liable if anything happens. A good place to get adpaters is a website called <www.truckaddons.com> There adapters are about $100 dollars apiece, and they are custom made so be sure to measure 4-5 times before calling them.
