DIY: 5 Lug Conversion on your Car or Truck
DIY four to five lug conversion and wheel bearing replacement. In this video I show you how to do a 4 to 5 lug conversion on a Nissan 240sx owned by LTworldsr SaabKyle04, but this applies to any 4 lug car. You can also use this process to go from a 5 to 6 lug on a truck or even 6 to 5 lug if you want. You are basically replacing the wheel bearing and hub assembly so this lug conversion applies to many different cars and trucks.

You're the only LTworldsr I watch ads for. Love your videos, and that's the best way I can help :p
@Sofyan Hidayat46 His content wouldn't be as good if he did that. Quality over quantity.
How do you measure the torque pounds, I didn’t understand that part.
Me too
ChrisFix was the day good . to see it haha 😆 I like the 🚗
@ChrisFix well with such good bideos how could you stop in the middle!
Why is the inside of the car stripped
Don’t become a mechanic if u watch Chris’s videos because everyone already know how to fix it themselves:p
thought you were going to change the old break's kit to A NEW kit to 6 piston break's kit ??
I thought this was Chrisfix drift car 3 years ago😂
*at 3 am* Brain: Go to sleep Me: But i have to watch this video about how to convert your can from a 4 lugnut hub to a 5 lugnut hub Brain: But you're 14 and you don't even own a car Me: But i have to know how to do that Brain: Dude it's not like the video will get removed or anything Me: Yea but i have to know how to do that Brain: Ugh fine, i guess
Might be uh to late for this , but can you apply the same steps if the car is a front wheel drive ?
Chris: "the axle nut needs to be torqued to 130 foot pounds" Me: "wait my lugs on my truck are 120 WHAT?!?!?!?!?!"
Can you change brake rotors without change brake pads? New rotors with old brake pads?
hey you might not see this but if you do where did you get the rotors? I'm about to do a 5 lug swap and cant find rotors
How do you know how to fix cars Chris fix
me watching this with a 5 lug car
Hey Chris I’m looking into updating the wheel bolt pattern on my dually. Where can I find the parts I need? I want to make sure I get the right parts. Thanks!
If anyone’s reading this, can someone let me know where I can get this kit and how much it is?
You should replace the old brake pads, never use old pads with new disc's
How would this work on drum brakes? Or will it work on drum brakes is the better question
sometimes when i open a chris fix video I say “hey guys, Chris Fix here” with him
I bet Saab Kyle has seen Chris' real face. I think he has, not sure.
Who all are seeing this by the end of 2020🤗
Yo are those wheels tire rack c4 cause if so I got the same on my e46 bmw
This is NOT TRUE
you are good for changing breaks
What if you don't want to use wheel adapter and what to change the bolt pattern. Can you swap out the hub like this?
No torque wrench no content
Thank you Chris, my dad don't know this and i teach it and he convert it successfully
とても分かりやすくて超参考になりました。 ありがとうございました！ thank you!
Man, this guy is in love with breaker bars
my hub will not come off it's totally seized it is not sliding right out :(
i have seen chrisfix face
i saw chrisfix
Wider wheels don't give you more grip. In fact, they can reduce grip in rainy weather due to skidding effect. The only thing that matters is weight of the vehicle and coefficient of friction of your tyre.
@DataLog Wow
@ChrisFix Np, wider wheels are still very useful because they offer extra stability, less lateral flex and allow for more downforce or weight (due to higher surface area, there is less pressure on the tyre) and less overall wear given the same thickness because there is more surface material. But if you have a small engine, the moment of inertia (which depends on the distance of mass from the axle of the wheel and total mass of the wheel) can eat up your torque and cause worse gas mileage. An ideal wheel would aim for maximum mass reduction away from the center, and all the necessary support as close to the center as possible. Two wheels can have the same mass and completely different moment of inertia, which at speed could mean 10s of times of difference in strain and gyroscopic forces. I'm a very big fan of your videos and you help a lot, I'm not a mechanic, but I have degrees in chemistry and physics.
Thanks for sharing!
is the car v12
It's an inline 6!
I think the cars usually have the places where you should put the jacks....you cannot choose the spot just randomly....
معلوماتك وعملك جميل صراحة إبداع تستاهل متابعة من القلب 😉👍❤🌹🇴🇲🌹
So wonderfully and clearly described ..no mistaking exactly what needs to be done ..you guys do a sterling job ..many thanks and keep it up
*Money pit*
i like how hes just like "so use a breaker bar and break it free" for the spindle nut. bullshit!! looks like it was torqued to 80lbs
My power mechanics teacher put on your video on all of the fluids and I got excited when I heard “ Hey guys ChrisFix here!”
Chris fix i know saabkyle04
Awesome!
RB POWEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRE
Please tell me how to you wash your microfiber cloths after getting them so dirty with all oil grease and all
Separate load in warm wooder with a mild detergent! Although I always prefer to use new ones for anything sensitive!
"A real easy trick is to go into the interior" Me: What interior???
I can do that in a '98 Chevy Cavalier Z24??
Can I do this with my 1993 mustang
@ChrisFix thx
You should be able to!
THE CHANNEL DIES IN A WEEK (allegedly) Damn. Here we are again. This morning I woke up to a dozen old copyright claims being filed. As a result, having 3+ copyright strikes has my channel marked for deletion in a week. I'm waiting on responses from folks right now to try and get this resolved, but honestly I'm less than hopeful. As if I needed more reasons to stay away from LTworlds, right? I'm going to lose everything if this channel goes away, but I'm sure as hell not going to lose this incredible audience and community I've created over these last 3 years - some of the best years of my life. I owe all of this to all of you, the folks who keep coming back just to see what I've been up to, or message me encouraging things when I'm not feeling 100%. I love you all, each and every one of you. Well, everyone but Phil. Sorry, Phil.
Never even heard of you
How did you get your tool on the top brake bolt, for the rear brakes. Nothing i have fits in that space
Is it this easy [universal] to remove all 4 lug hubs to convert to a 5 lug?
Chrisfix + Saabkyle = amazing
If I wanna do this on an auto car so what gear should I put it in before loosening the axle bolt?
@ChrisFix Ah alright thanks.
You would go park and then neutral!
I used to have two Nuts but someone stabbed my sack and done a nut delete so now I only have one! What would you recommend?

Are you still friends with Saabkyle?
You'll never be a NASCAR repairman you take a little too long
Thanks for sharing!
Nice job and very details...
Thanks!
te36
how does he put it in gear with out the clutch in
The car isn't running so you can put it in gear as nothing is moving!
chris fix *screaming inside torqing down 200 ft/lbs*: perfect!
Chrisfix=ThebestFix
3:26 dang look at those guns lol
I never really understood the foot-pounds.. can someone explain that to me
But the brake calipers look awful
Chris is the type of a guy that could fix your depression with just some common handtools
That’s cool and all but where tf would I get a 5 lug hub for a 96 integra
Is it possible to do this on a 2002 ford explorer XLT.....converting from 5 lug nut to 6 lug nut....here the most common rim type is the six hole pattern.... eagerly waiting for your response..... watching from Ndola Zambia 🇿🇲🇿🇲🇿🇲
good job :)
:) I always like taking apart engines (4 strokes and flat heads)
Thanks!
s3xy 240sx! Congrats SaabKyle04 on getting a nice find! ChrisFix, keep doin' your videos, I might need them, maybe not now. But I'll always do.
Thanks a lot!
?
11.25 that vains tho..
The 240 owner is beta
Hello thanks for the video ! But, where can i find 5 holes brake disc ? or have you a reference ? thanks sorry for my english ^^
2.50 always use protection kids
When using a torque wrench where do you fine the information on how many Foot lbs it needs?
Where are the brake pads??
Slight tip on the side always try to push instead of pulling... trust me that can save your back and save you from a broken nose.
hey there..i have 1992 ford tempo..front disc brakes and rear drums..i want to change the bolt pattern...can you point me in rite direction
12:30 knee reveal
Nn
7:01 Vine check
Would you put something in between your wheel spacers and the hub or just metal on metal?
😷
chrisfix making sure we dont hurt ourselves during the repair is such a nice detail
Absolutely! Safety always comes before anything else!
Anyone know how to do this for a 3rd gen prelude?
who else was waiting for the big brake kit and got disappointed 😔
You are the batman of modification of cars
What if i have dum brakes? How would I remove my hub?
Can I do this on a 5x4.75 to 5x5.5 ??
your channel is the best

roses are red i want a marigold when i realize this video is 3 years old
@Rcihrad rip
ChrisFix BRUHHHH i thought he jus uploaded this damn.

Could you tell me what break disks you use for that 5 lug setup ?
Hey I have a question is this how you change your rim size to like from 16 to 17,18,........

Chrisfix more like chrisflex

Hi. Cris i just wondering were can i check or buy the right hub for my car? Got NISSAN ALMERA HATCHBACK (N16) 1.5 PETROL 90 HP
I got 4 bolts stud. Want to change it to 5.
I still can't believe that spindle nut is a 30mm that literally shocked me, Anyways I seen this vid an took interest cause I bought some chrome 20's for my 04 Mustang but the bolt pattern is completely differant on the new rims so figured I'd get adapters but heard adapters are bad for torque an bust so I may do what you done to this 240. Would a 04 Mustang be similar to this like what I'm asking is will the rear of mine be as simple as this 240 ? I've worked on cars for several years but I've never swapped hubs..
What happed to the 6 piston brakes
Anyone do this conversion on a 3rd gen Prelude? Any particular parts needed or any tips you could help me out with?
Mind if I ask what rims those are? They looks like TE37s tonmr
To me
Nice
Anyone else realize he shifted gears with out the clutch
