That is not in dispute. But Azie's original question was:

If his goal is to convert his 95 Dakota over to the same bolt circle as his
89 Dakota, 79 Aspen and 87 Diplomat, using the Ram hubs will NOT achieve
that goal as the hubs do NOT have a the same bolt circle as the vehicles he
is trying to match.
It appears you have a separate but somewhat similar thread conversation
going with Bob and the answers to Azie's various questions are being
confused.
