Question:
M1101 Military trailer hub and brake drum conversion to Toyota 6 x 139.7mm 5.5" question. I am wanting to convert my M1101 trailer 8 x 6.5inch hubs and drums over to Toyota/Lexus 6 x 5.5" hubs and drums. Do you have a kit with both hubs, drums, complete with bearings/seals?

First you are going to want to disassemble one of your hubs to verify if you have the #42 Spindle # TRU37FR. I have found this is the spindle some have found but you will need to determine it is what you have and if not you will need to have a pair of the spindles welded onto your axle. This will then allow you to install the Electric Brakes # AKEBRK-7-SA along with the 2 of the 6 on 5-1/2" Drum/Hubs # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K. The hubs are complete with bearings pre-greased and seals inserted in the hubs allowing you to easily slide them on the spindles.
