Default 1996 100mm and 114mm bolt patterns

Hi all,

I have a 1996 caravan with 14" wheels and therefore the 100mm bolt pattern. If I wanted to go to the larger 114" bolt pattern is it just a matter of swapping front bearing assemblies and rear spindles, or is there much more to it? Any info would be greatly appreciated!

TIA

Rob

Because I would rather run larger diameter wheels. I have to change struts anyway. While I'm in there if it's a simple bearing swap then why not. The rears will be the extra chore I guess but no big thing if it's just the spindles.

well you toss on larger diameter wheels and then you need to have the speedometer recalibrated.

and heck you can get 100mm 16" rims off other chrysler vehicles

I put some daytona 15" rims on my 100mm minivan hubs. looks sweet.
