Over in Revcon land we are discussing wheel conversion options.
The Revcon starts with a Toro front clip and bolts on a massive wheel adapter.
Underneath my front wheels is a stock, chevy five lug front hub.
Did GMC do that or did they make a new hub/rotor ?
We are pondering options to get the wheels from the obscure 5 on 8 inch pattern to something more common like an 8 lug dually rim
THanks.

It's gonna take a lot of Adderall to get this thing right.

Dave,
The Revcons also have massive, upper and lower control arms. This
should have been done to the GMC also.
