hey everyone, i own a 1995 nissan 240sx and a 1996 nissan 240sx.

i just bought my 1996 as a doner car 2 days ago and the plan is to swap the ka24de and the 5 lugs to 1995 shell. i am doing this because i bought the 1996 for $900 bucks, but it has been rear ended pretty bad.

so my question is. is there a walk through or a guide or a sticky somewhere for a 5lug swap. please tell me you guys have one im tired of searching. and this front hub is kicking my A** :bash:

i did the 5lug swap recently and its not hard at all

just unbolt any arms attached to the front spindle, and replace the spindle with the 5 lug one

the spindles are identical but S13 use 12mm bolts and S14s use 14mm bolts on the strut

you might have to hit the spindle a couple of times with a hammer to slide the arms out.

Remove 4lug hubs.

Install 5lug hubs.

This is all very remedial, basic stuff. Asked and answered for over a dozen years.

yes believe me i know this, i wanted a crutch to lean just in case. i have been doing body work for years, but deal with suspension or motors much. i was just wanting to be safe.

and just so you guys know all 4 luggers are off now, bout to pull and place the 5 lugs.

and looking it over and the 2hours it took to pull its pretty simple and self explanatory.

thank you guys again for the help
