Thanks Ron.

Just remember that ALKO hubs will not have metric studs.
Not a problem with steel wheels but a BIG problem if you want to fit alloys, as the spline hole is bigger than a rover stud spline.

I wonder if they would supply the hub undrilled?

I think you can get them undrilled, but there is nothing to stop you knocking the studs supplied out, and redrilling halfway in between them.

You would, however, need to have the skills and equipment to do this, or pay someone to do it. Any engineering shop should be able to do this.

To do it yourself, you ideally would need a lathe with a dividing head to accurately mark locations, but, with care, this could be done manually with sufficient accuracy. I would want to have a drill press to ensure the holes were perpendicular to the surface.

Yes, they do.

Ian i get here in Mildura from Titan Wheels.
They knock them up from blanks that they have and i get drilled to the 165 mm PCD and fit 1 mm Land Rover studs myself.
For the earlier 9/16" BSF studs you could just get them drilled to suit the smaller spline. Regarding bearings i just get what they
use as standard (? Holden) but i am sure you could get the hubs machined to suit Ford cups.

I see Titan wheels have a branch in Yatala and Emerald Qld.

Cheers, Mick.

I recently got a set of drilled drums with slimline (Ford) bearings to suit the Hybrid I am building (Towing behind the County so same wheels). Nearly any trailer shop should be able to source them. As stated, beware of the stud size issues.
