Re: Christine 64' long bed build.
Got the wheels home lastnight and only managed to get 2 on due to the rear center bore being to large.

Re: Christine 64' long bed build.
make a 2 inch by 6 inch rectangle plate that bolts through the wheel covering the center bore. Now take the appropriate hole saw (hub diameter) and drill bit and center it in the plate as a guide. Be careful and it will work. If not, take them to a machine shop and spend a little coin. Have them bore them to the hub diameter so the lugs are not supporting all of the weight. aka hub centric
or go disc  the newer disc brake kits use later model rotors with the smaller bore diameter

Re: Christine 64' long bed build.
Do not try to trim the axle flanges to fit the wheels, trim the wheels to fit the axles

Re: Christine 64' long bed build.
If you have the room , that's the best plan for a daily. I would love to do that with my 50 burb, but can't find a clean frame and tough to take up that much space with a non roller
