Re: 5 lug?

Easiest way I.M.O. is to buy a 73-87 1/2 ton pickup or suburban and pull the rear end and front suspension including the crossmember. Pull yours out and put this in. One day R&R.
I just did one on a 68 C30 1 ton out and in complete in one day. You can rebuild everything or nothing as you choose. My donor was in great shape so I chose to leave everything alone. Bolt it in and away you go. Drill a couple holes and elongate a couple. Easy Peasy.
