2005 Ford Adrenalin
Hello all, thank you for anyone here that takes the time to help me. I am new to the forum. I found this fourm looking for some info on wheel fitment.
I have a 2005 Sport Trac Adrenalin. My father just bought a 2010 Adrenalin and I fell in love with the 20" wheels that were on his truck. I saw a thread here where a memeber was able to install these wheels on his 03. With this little bit of info I bought a set. I just came from the tire shop and I have found that these wheels do not fit my 05. We test fit one wheel on the front. The bolt pattern is the same, however the front hubs are too short to support the wheel. Will someone give me some advice on how this member (below) was able to get his on and are they mounted correctly?

Please help, TIA

Hello again. I did some more research and found the reason why these wheels do not fit my 05. The reason is because it is 2wd vs the other guy must have had a 4wd. The front hubs are different on the 4wd truck. So now I am looking in to buying a pair of 4wd hubs, front rotors, and spindles to replace mine to be able to mount these wheels. If I am missing something will someone please inform me? I am not doing a 4wd conversion, just need the 4wd hubs and spindles.
