Tear end measurements and questions...

Measuring rear end for open drive conversion.
My baby girl came to help. Old rear measures 62 1/4 drum face to drum face.. blazer rear I have measures 59 1/4..
are 1.5" spacers converting 5x4.75 to 6 lug available? My existing chrome reverse wheels are ok. 4" back space gives me about an inch and 3/4 clearance... not enough
I also found 4 lug studs stripped.. I hope new ones will hold.. long enough to do swap. anybody ever tapered hole and tacked studs in place?
How much end play on axle in out is ok? Mine moves a tenth or more.. ....
