You guys are awesome, thanks for the info. This morning I attempted to put the '53 GMC wheel on the front hub of the '42 CCKW. I say attempted because at 04:30 this guys 58 year old body is not properly warmed up so i got it up on the hub and over the studs. It would not go further. Thinking it was paint interferance i just let it hang there and went to work. Thats when I asked you guys about it. You are right, its a stud centered front hub and not hub centered. The '53 wheel are hub centered correct? I have all 10 of the CCKW's wheels and I will use them. Thanks guys you saved my back. Happy New Year to you to 3b.
