So after my car was stolen and wrecked I purchased a donor vehicle. The donor has the v6 in it and needless to say (its a 5 lug). My question is, how would I go about converting my 4 lug into the 5 lug? I assume the rear is simple, just swap out the entire assembly, but what about the front? Do the axles have diff splines? Would I be able to switch them out at the knuckle? Any and all help will be very very appreciated.

 

Might need to look at adapters. 4 to 5 lug. Changing the suspension is tricky.

 

Check out the net, bunch of options out there. Have not heard of anyone do it here though.

 

I believe you need Accord parts and other miscellaneous things to do this. I know Ken (desired_speed) and Art (Go90go) know more about this.

 

Its been so long that i've forgot already. I think you need the Odyssey front hubs and the 1st gen CL spindle.

 

You really don't want to do adapters, they are really unsafe. That is just MHO.

WHY THE FUCK HASN'T CLINT999 BEEN BANNED YET?!

All this bot does is repost other peoples' posts!

I've been saying this since a little while after that account went active, yet no mod notices, .

~Cheers~

 

Yea I've noticed in some other threads that he's been doing the same thing.

 

That is a weird use of time.
Hey Art I was under the impression that you are a Moderator? If not ya should be and then go SEAL on this guy.

 

I'm not, and honestly there have many times where I wish I could just close or delete some things. Cleanup, and such. After being admin on other boards, I got used to having control panel access at my fingertips, haha, but I don't think I'd want to be a real mod here. Besides, it's a lot of work, and I'm not sure the other staff would be too keen on a new addition, .

~Cheers~

 

Clint999 is no more. If you see anyone else doing such things, let me know. I can't view every thread on this board but I do try. Some slip through the cracks.

 

Thanks Ken!

~Cheers~

 

OP- I know this is old but did you do the swap? I'm working on doing this right now on my 2.5. I'm using 95 Odyssey front hubs and bearings. Same bearing as the 2.5 but rotor over hub setup! The rear's I'm not sure yet but those are easy. I need to get some new ball joint boots and I will post a new thread and pics here.

 

Memphis, Interested in seeing how that works and if you could list the parts required....these 4 lug hub over rotors are stupid...If there's a relatively simple upgrade to rotor over hub I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Keep us posted.

 

not to thread jack I started new thread....
