8 lug gm to rockwell?

[quickracer]

the 8 lug adapter that bolts to the rockwell to convert to 8 lugs,,,are they any good,or should i stay away from them?

 

[paradisePWoffrd]

if you are talking about the one that usa6xsucks sells, it bolts to the driveflange on the axle, so you haveta run extremely backspaced wheels or youll be really wide.... Ricky (jrraw23) runs them with like 6" BS wheels, i think, and hes at ~104" wide...

imo, I'd sell the 8 lug wheels and get/make some with a rockwell pattern...

and stay away from USA6x6

thanks for the info,id rather ask than go out and do something that not worth the time and money..

USA6x6 is out of business, just thought I would let you know.

I know you can buy new center for your current wheels that are rockwell pattern, but it is somework. They "usually" run around $50ea depending on where you get them from.

National tire and wheel is advertising Eaton, Rockwell pattern wheels in some of the mags now. Reasonable prices IMO.

Who has some rockwell rollers so he can cut some centers out? I'm out of them right now, Ricky?

Or, try giving longs wheel out of jacksonville, FL a call, maybe they would sell you just the flat inner plate to weld into your wheels.

I do have some but I'm trying to hang onto them cause I have a feeling these 8 lug adapters are gonna break on me one day and I'll have to weld the Rockwell centers into my rims . . . .

About damn time...wonder if he's selling his remaining inventory dirt cheap....

 

[paradisePWoffrd]

the only thing he probly had in inventory is shit ppl dont want... everything ppl ordered they had to make and took forever to do it...

it would be awesome if someone here local started making everything they attempted...

ive got a set of 4 rollers .

 

[small45]

they are not cheap, but randy ouverson makes a super 8 conversion to do just what you're talking about. plus, they give you the wheel brake option...since pinion brakes catch on fire easily

I took a set of 15x12 wheels and cut out the centers and welded in new rockwell centers that way you can make them any backspacing and welded on a set of beadlock rings. I made mine 6.5"BS so my overall width is 98" with the 47"LTB with the hubs flipped out. You almost come out just as good on price just buying a set of complete wheels that are made for rocks by the time you buy the hardware, rings, and centers. +time
