spindle/brake question

Is there any difference between a 68 and a 72 spindle? Specifically is there any reason you couldn't put 72 disks on a 68 spindle? I see a lot of people swapping out the whole front end to put disks on the older models. I thought of doing this as well, but I would be replacing the rotors/calipers/lines anyway. Why go through the hassle of changing out a big part only to disassemble it and replace all the components. Also, does anyone make 5-lug front drums for a 68? The PO put all new brakes on it right before I bought it, but I would like to put 5-lug wheels on it. I don't really need disks right now, but I'm kicking around all possibilities.
