what do you mean buy converted hubs to patrol?? did you put a solid axle under the front of it?

Toli88 · Feb 19, 2014

No I used hub adapters

Ah ok, wasnt aware you could do that with the D40.

How much has it pushed the rims out?

any pics?

Toli88 · Feb 19, 2014

Haven't fitted yet, gunna get the new wheels first then out them
On. Will end up the same as using a zero offset rim on standard hubs

nathand22 · Feb 19, 2014

If you add a spacer in the way of a hub adapter then run 0 off set you will have a much wider stance then stock.
D40 rims are about +30 so 0 off set is pushing the centre of the rim further to the middle and intern giving you a deeper dish then +30, so if the spacer is say 20mm you would really need to be at +45 - +50 off set to equal things out........... wouldnt you??

Im still trying to get my head around the patrol hubs...are we talking manual locking hubs?

big zetor · Feb 19, 2014

no i think they might be wheels spacers that have 6/114.3 pcd on one side and 6/139 pcd on the other.

no i think the wrong terminology was used, i was the same as you.... what tha!!

He is just using an adapter to change the stud pattern.

camo.b · Feb 19, 2014

I got real excited there for a minute!!

BigMik3 · Feb 19, 2014

Im interested in this aswell any pics and which ones have you used? Wouldnt these not cause a vehicle to be unroadworthy in AUS?

Personally i would never use them, especially if you do lots of off road work.
Those studs just cant be as strong as the stock ones.

Not to mention spacers of any type make your car unroadworthy. And if you had an accident your insurance company could refuse to pay. Not to mention putting yourself and others at risk.

Not that plenty of people use them without any trouble. But they CAN fail.

BigMik3 · Feb 20, 2014

I think id be more concerned with safety over roadworthy. How many people have their rides lifted more then 100mm with suspension and tyres without engineering cert or run oversized tyres? Id be worried about a stud breaking at 110km on or freeway or in middle of whoop whoop at inopertune time.

Correct me if im wrong but i thought hub adaptors were illegal, and void insurance, ive thought about getting adaptors myself.

Toli88 · Feb 24, 2014

Sorry guys didn't get any alerts on comments, using adapters from the states. 1 1/4 inch. So to achieve the same offset as what a 0 offset navara is I will be using +25 or thereabouts patrol wheels. Yes it is unroadworthy but so is anything over a 2 inch lift in victoria. Even with rims you can't go over 1 inch wider than the original and 2 inches taller....
Hubs are aerospace grade and I have them in my hand and can tell you that they are quite heavy for what it is and very solid

I think you might want to check your calculations, D40 rims are pos35 or 35+ offset from factory, so by going pos25 you are actually going to end up with a deeper dish then stock by 10mm.
On top of that add your spacer (roughly 31mm) and you are now well and truly wider then factory 31mm = 10mm = 41mm then add your tyres which will no doubt be wider then you had before.
I think you may need to grab some flared guards.

Toli88 · Feb 24, 2014

Will need guard flared for sure, have seen 35s on 0 offset before so shouldn't be a drama
