bill- i was thinking... i thought i saw a couple hubs layin around on the side of your car: why not just use the dowel pins from them?.. and to get them out you might get lucky using a reverse drill bit, these are always fun... i had to drill a couple out of my hub when i sheared all the studs/pins i was just thankful that i had access to a drill press:awesomework:

If the hole is wallowed out on the wheel hub, you'll either need to drill for a larger dowel pin, or junk the wheel hub and find one that's good...Just make sure the holes where the dowels go are in good condition, or you WILL have the same issue---guaranteed!!!

drill new ones...and put in more pins. If you can ditch the hubs and go to flanges then drill for pins. Something like what Trail gear offers. http://www.trail-gear.com/hub.html

But I personally would buy Longfields flanges and FROR studs, combined with more pins.
