Is there a wheel adapter to bolt the early ford [5 lug on 5-1/2"] wheel onto a [5 lug on 4-1/2"] newer nine inch rear end?...sure would make my life easier......THANks

Yes I found mine on ebay,good luck.

There are lots of aftermarket companys that make billit http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif adapters, they are ALOT stronger but they`re not cheap! They`ll make any adapter in any thinkness that you need.

Ive never had any of the old ones break- my motor is stock 409 -automatic/should be OK
any sources of these?

[Assdragger]

I was looking for some myself, they go for crazy money on ebay. If you wanna spend that kind of dough, just buy the tools and build em yourself!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

There are adaptors that work butt they all move the wheel farther from the brake drum.
If clearence isnt a problem then they work.
If you are using aluminum or magnesium wheels then its not hard to change a bolt pattern.
if you have slot mags with a solid center section (back side) you can just have someone locally bridgeport a new pattern into the wheel.
I do this sort of thing all the time.
I cnnot post pictures on this site as I am not smart enough to figure how to get my .JPG under 70K. I am trying to get some help here from a guy who understands computers.
I have DSL so I never turn mine off. I only use it for email ebay and a few sites like this one.
If you mail me direct with pictures of your wheels maybe I can help you.

I have a pair of 3 1/2" Magnesium American Lemans wheels, if I change the pattern,is that going to mess-up the look of the wheels around the bolt holes?

Sorry to highjack your post Kenny!

Yeah Tony- I wanna run '47 Lincoln steelies on my 9inch rear end.....I found a lifetime guaranteed set of 4 for 140 bucks-[ebay]anybody buy two from me if I buy em? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Assdragger]

I`m not in the market at this point because I paid the price for my rear wheels with a 4 1/2" bolt pattern. I will probably just drill my front hubs to 4 3/4" which is what my front wheels are. I really dont want to run adapters on the front.
