Why does everyone use Toyota hubs when doing the 5-lug conversion? Don't some of the newer Nissan suvs come with 5-lugs. Is it just convenience or is the spacing wrong on the new Nissans.

If you use a toyota front end if building a chassis it will just lay out better to me.

If you are going all out you can use the front of a toyota from the firewall up and it will lay out better as in the camber. I have never done this just seen pics. No since in it if you don't won't 5 lugs and not doing a body drop. But this could be wrong as well! I always thought the nissan and yota front was the same.
