5lug conv. s14 spindle question

for those that have used the s14 5 lug converion, what method did you use for the spindle? did you drill out your coilovers/shcoks to 14mm s14 sized bolts? or did you use the little sleeves, which i don't hink the guy makes anymore.

p.s. i have the little sleeves, but the inside diameter is to small. so to fit, it has to be machined out to fit

Just drill the struts and use S14 bolts.

Naw, wait, that'd be too easy.

I'm assuming you're talking about a 5-lug conversion on an S13???

Just go with these.....simple swap. One bolt your done.

Prolly too late for you though since it sounds like you already bought all your parts. Plus these are brand new, not used hubs.
