Measure the stud spacing

Measure the stud spacing centre to centre of two studs next to each other , phone up martins trailer parts, and they will tell you if it's ford or holden

but you'll still need to rip it apart to check the bearings and seals are right.

You'll have to pull the bearings out and check.

You can buy holden hubs to fit ford bearings and vice versa so measuring the stud spacing doesn't always work.
