There is really no magic to the 6-lug disc brake stuff.

The aftermarket just used a new "blank" 5-lug rotor,... and drilled it to the 6-lug pattern in the manufaturing process.

There are a couple catches.
You have to have HD 1-1/4" style spindles to work with these.
(6-lug rotors only come in 1-1/4" width)

Stock steelies made before 1971 won't work.
The wheels aren't designed to clear the brake caliper.

Any steel wheel made after the 1970 model year, (aka 71-87 4x4 steel wheels) will work fine.
Also the 6-lug truck 73-87 ralley wheels will work fine.

BTW, that's a nice looking stepper. You Hawkins Co. boys just have all the fun don't you?

I hope you get it all figured out.
