Rear axles

I have a 1970 GMC Long Bed with a SBC 327. The front end has been converted to five axles and disc brakes. I dont really care about rear disc but I would like to install the 5 bolt axles. How can this be accomplished and what parts are needed. I am new to the forum so please be easy on me. The rear is a Chevy 12 bolt. Thanks

Welcome to the "madness"! the 70 12 bolt should accept the 71-72 axles......also i beleive the 73 up axles will fit. 67-69 the housings were about 1 1/2" narrower, so they would require an aftermarket axle. Good luck....crazy AL
