There are multiple ways to do. Some people just machine the outer part of hub so that brake disk sits on it. This is not optimal but I haven't heard about broken bolts anyway. This additional plate you already linked looks like best option. Edit: Some kind of shims inside sounds like good compromise to me.

great pictures!! thanks for the images and great option. after that machine work, how thick was the metal where the wheel stud sits?

Cant remember for sure, but i think around 8-10mm.

Started making stuff. Made the lower control arms and started burning in the mounts on the axle.

I am getting very excited about getting parts from Timo Lipponen <timo@offroadtarvike.fi>

Hopefully, I can get the order done quickly, so they are on the way.

Took longer than I wanted, but got the rear axle in.
