Question

Has anyone attempted or have info about using hubs and whatnot from the 80-83 f100/150 to get the smaller bolt pattern for these trucks?

Thanks in advance
Some 1980/83 F100's have 5 lug wheels on a 4.50" bolt circle, some have 5 lug wheels on a 5.50" bolt circle.

No 1975/96 F150 has 4.50" bolt circle wheels.

The 4.5" rotors are about 3/4" smaller diameter, as well as thinner. The mounts for the caliper to the spindle are fixed and not able to be adjusted for location. Couldn't say about bearings.

don't play well w others
Bearings are smaller, you need the spindle. Also, swing arms and brackets are stamped and not cast, and aren't interchangeable

Really not a good swap, that is the reason Ford did away with the set up
