Ok so I have a 2000 xj I am building into a street able trail jeep. Just bought a set of newer rubicon wheels that are 5 on 5. My xj has 5 on 4.5. Been looking at the adapters you can buy any opinions on quality and life expectancy. Is there any conversion kicks to upgrade my Hun to a 5 on 5 new style hub. Or could I swap or part together something.

The front you could swap in the knuckles out from a jeep wj but that will take new steering and a track bar and track bar mount on the axle.The rear a machine shop could redrill the axles and brakes.The cheapest option is sell the rims and get some with the right bolt pattern.

I used spidertrax adapters for those wheels. Got them for $100 a pair at 4 wheel parts. People say not to use adapters but I wheeled a yj for over a year with them never had any issues. Use thread locker on the bolts you should be fine.

Or if you got money to burn you could swap axles like the jk rubicon 44s.
