Getting alloys to fit early defender...pcb fitment

Jaykay1987 · Jul 25, 2020

Hi, i have an early 200 defender E reg...im wanting to put defender alloys on a mate gave me, but obviously they dont fit because the hub sticks through an i beleive the hub on the rear the alloy wont even fit over will it??? do i need spacers to make them fit? also how do i know what ones to use? cheers

If you have rear drums most alloys won’t fit

Unsure if spacers help due to the shafts sticking out & the centres not full machined

Spacers will rectify the problem, I ended up selling my spacers and fitting 24 spline axles that gave me disk brakes all around and worked out the same price as the spacers I sold

Go for 'hubcentric' ones the take the weight on the spacer itself and not the studs
