ill probably end up having to buy the new then. Does anybody know an easy way to change to 5 stud using locally sourced gear?

G'day Mitch,
Nxtime is selling his 5 stud conversion atm. This includes the hubs, bigger shafts and larger LSD of an 88-89 widebody.
All up with the wheels, it ain't going to be cheap!

...and lots more options. Painted black they are difficult to detect behind a nice mesh simmons wheel!

How much would he want for the lot as i really need a 3.9 anyway over the 3.55?
The rims ive had on my car for the last 5 years have had spacers as the have a fwd offset, so spacers dont bother me.
Was thinking of going 5 stud because its easier to find wheels but Simmons still make 4 stud ones.
What other options are out there?
Thanks guys and/or girls for your help!
