    As long as you can get hubs to match the LR pattern it should be straight forward, but I don't know how easy that is.

    There are a lot of threads on this matter, but you may need to go back about 2 years. e.g http://www.aulro.com/afvb/trailers-v...hubs-rims.html or http://www.aulro.com/afvb/trailers-v...ur-camper.html

    To summarise, the DII/P38a PCD is almost exactly the same as a Holden Commodore PCD so you can use AlKo hubs and brakes.
    However The DII rim will not allow the AlKo parrallel (Land Cruiser) bearing hub to pass through the centre, so you can only use Holden bearings (1000Kg per axle) or Slimline (Ford Falcon) bearings (1450Kg per axle.

    Also the AlKo studs are AF not metric so you may need to drill out and replace the AlKo studs with DII/P38a studs, if you wish to use DII alloy rims.

    Hope this assists.

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    http://www.aulro.com/afvb/trailers-v...iler-born.html that thread covers it. if you have to enlarge the hole in the centre of the wheels then it will not go well on you d2 hub centric hubs

    Roscoe,
    I had hubs made up at:
    Vehicle Components - trailer parts suspension winches brakes axles
    (Geebung, Brisbane). At the time I requested Range Rover stud pattern and now would like a D2 pattern, but need to source some rims first. Interesting to see that the Commodore PCD is very close.
    Cheers,
    Steve
