Title: FE FC Wheels on a Trailer Post by: REDMR2RED on December 19, 2008, 04:28:33 PM I'm building a Tear Drop Caravan ;D and want to put 13 inch FE FC Wheels, (which I already have, thanks Tony) on it to match my FC Ute. The Axles I've been quoted are for Holden HT stud pattern.
Short of taking a wheel with me ...... will an FC 13 inch wheel fit the HT stud pattern? If not what is the latest Holden hub/stud pattern that fits a 13 inch wheel. Apparently their price list did not include FE FC Hubs. >:( Cheers, Kevin Title: Re: FE FC Wheels on a Trailer Post by: mcl1959 on December 19, 2008, 04:37:13 PM The FC has the same stud pattern as HT so the wheels will fit Kevin.

Title: Re: FE FC Wheels on a Trailer Post by: REDMR2RED on December 20, 2008, 03:48:27 PM Thanks Ratbox, No, no brakes. I've been reading the Aussie Design Rules "National Code of Practice" for home built trailers and caravans. Not exceeding 0.75 tonne no brakes required. Alls I have to do now is keep the Tear Drop under 0.75 tonne. ;D
