    replacing Cookes PT2 trailer hubs to take Disco 2 wheels

    I have an ex army Cookes 750Kg trailer and am wanting to either change the hubs are get a spacer which allows me to put my D2 wheels on it. I contacted Alko and they weren't very helpful. Has anyone done this? Thanks.

    Thanks. There are some on Ebay but the seller came back saying that the stud pattern diameter was too big for them to make. There is a guy in the UK who has them but they are 30mm thick and would weigh a tonne. I have asked him about shipping so I have the info.

    Thats what I thought. The specs say they are Alko, but Alko just fobbed me off to a Caravan repair company. They provided zero info so was quite disappointing. Thanks again

    Is D2 5 x 120PCD (commodore) ??

    Would second one one this list fit??

    If not I see the are a few options that are undrilled, from memory you might need to machine the Centre boss as well

    Just thinking search Redback member on hear, pretty sure he converted to D2
