You can get alloy conversion hubs for triumph (disc brake) front uprights. They fit the Triumph spindles but have Ford pcd wheel studs.

hubs

measure from a stud centre through the hub centre to the oposite stud centre?
ford = 4 and a quarter inches
triumph = 3 and three quarters
its called the p.c.d. pitch circle diameter if your not in to engineering

pcd

Hey g.gilo,
Thnx for the definition. As a Yank, we call it 'bolt pattern'. As in Triumph, 4 on 3-3/4", Ford, 4 on 4-1/4",etc
