5x5 to 8x6.5
Anyone ever run 2 piece 2" adapters before?

I don't mind running adapters as I have Spidertrax 1.5" on right now but about to make the jump to 60's up front and retaining the stock 44 rear. Just wondering if these 2 piece adapters are sketchy?
Btw, might have some sweet 5x5 TrailReady HD17's on the selling block soon. Just sold my Racelines...

I just bought some - went with Hutchinson 8x6.5" beadlocks and going to be using my stock D44 axles until I upgrade to D60s. Haven't installed yet but an anxiously waiting for the parts. Thanks for this video already new to cut my studs shorter but never hurts to see/hear the results of not doing it properly.

Thanks for chiming in. I really wasn't expecting a response since I figured many here haven't done a front 60 swap with 8x6.5" hubs + stock 44 rear. Good luck. Hope it works out.
