not to be a dick, but your comparing a mouse to a Horse...

that isnt going to happen, Have you looked at how small the center hole on a 5x5 rim is? theres no way a Lockout hub will work..

whats the big deal with changing to 5x5.5 anyhow? It'll open up more rim choices than the 5x5.

I agree if your really going to do something like this. you will probably will be running some huge tires and beadlocks. This upgrade is not for your occasional offroader. unless you just want the coolest and baddest things around. But on a side note you can replace alot of axles on the trail for that price, and gears, driveshafts shoot you can almost rebuild the whole underneath
