    Yep I see that, but gota think that's easier than the single nut version that I was trying to pull off.

    Well, I would suggest a hub swap to get the 5 bolt. I don't know if that will ease the transistion or not, depends on the carrier and bearing, etc. May have to swap swing arms.

    Don't know if it helps, but I have the entire new SSS from a GL1800 that is 5 bolt, with brakes and all. It MAY be a good source of parts.
