Re: C10 Axles
Yep... You either need to use the 6-lug axles and have them redrilled for 5-lug. Or buy aftermarket 5-lug conversion axles.
I have a 1969 C10 rear end that I installed Moser 5-lug conversion axles into it.
If you put stock 1971-1972 5 lug axles in a 1970 and earlier housing they will be too long and the bearings won't ride correctly on the race surfaces of the axle. Not to mention your rear drums won't line up either. So you need the shorter 5 lug conversion axles.
