1962 Chev C30 vs C10/20 brakes

Just starting a project, bought 1962 C30 since I wanted the cab/chassis look -- but now realizing limited wheel choices for 8 lug.

Going to switch out rear end, so no issues there, but neet to change front end -- easy to fit C10/20 hubs on C30?

Thoughts?

I'm pretty sure you will have to change the spindles and balljoints. At that point you may as well upgrade to disc brakes.
