i want to convert my front brakes to 5 stud to make my hilux diff... im running xt130 struts with the pug rotors and hilux 4 spots, is there another hub i can bolt straight up the the corona spindal to give me 5 x 114.4?
i tried to search this but the toymods search is rather crap

Will that actually bolt up to the Corona though like it does the MA61?

yes it will go straight onto the stub axle
u wont be able to run any disc bigger than what you've got unless u re-position the caliper with a new brakcet
so just re-drill the existing peugeot discs and away u go!

The AU fords offset is +36 - might be too much without spacers. The MS65 hubs don't make that much difference

If they're steel rims you could have new outers fitted in whatever offset you like although perhaps Ford put some effort into structural design of the wheel in the first place?
EB Falcon alloys (mesh BBS style) would look pretty good I think but maybe only 15"?
