5 bolt disc hubs to 6 bolt disc hub swap
 
I'm working on a rwd 1968 C/10 Panel Truck that has had the drum brake front suspension swapped out with a 1974 C/10 disc brake power steering front suspension. I would like to swap the 1974 5 bolt hubs back to the 1968 6 bolt hubs and am wondering if anyone has done this and what parts would fit?
Thank you!

You can use aftermarket 6-lug conversion hub/rotors instead of the factory disc brake 5-lug hub/rotors. You will need 6-lug disc brake spec wheels though. Factory 68 6-lug drum brake wheels won't clear the calipers.
