Is it possible to fit four stud hubs to p100 five stud uprights ?.

i don't know but i could check by putting my cortina hub on our p100 as a last resort, but im sure someone will know though

i've wondered this before and guessitmated that it will work ...........

uncle henry liking to reuse components and all. easiest thing would be to see if the bearing sets are the same. if not check to see if hte outer sizes are identical......
let us know what you find out.

Hi Kevin,

I've got a couple of Cortina hubs in my shed awaiting my "next project". You're quite welcome to come over and measure them up or trial fit them. Let me know, as I'd need to dismantle one.

Say, what are p100 uprights?
I'd be interested in 5 stud on a Mk 4 cortina stub axle.
With thanks M

The P100 was/is a pick up.

ummmm, cheers. Could you please report; make, model, approx years of production?
With thanks, Michael

granada's (the old ones) also used the 5 stud bolt pattern which is why i also think they will fit on the cortina hub.

P100 is Transit stud pattern, bigger than the Granny.

The stud pattern on the Sierra P100 is the same as a Transit, but the wheels on the Cortina fronted version definately had a smaller PCD...

Thank you gentlemen. Down under in New Zealand we don’t see all the models that you’ve seen, hence I have never seen a Granada. However, I have seen Transits vans and the occasional Transit pickup. Standard Cortina MK4 stud patterns are about 108mm P.C.D. and it is difficult to re-pitch them as the overall hub diameter is small. It is a little difficult/expensive to get standard alloy wheels for Cortina hubs and therefore it’d be nice to look at a five stud. Commiserations on the Rugby and congratulations on the Cricket.

just remembered, had this conversation with NS DEV. Pretty sure the outcome was the granada hubs don't fit the cortina spindles.
