WTB 5x5 bolt patern axles for a 12 bolt 68 chevy axle
Okay guys i want to convert my 12 bolt on my 68 chevy step to 5 on 5 lug. My front has that pattern from the disc brakes. I am not 100% sure what will work but I want to later convert to cadillac/camaro rear disc and a posi rear end.. I dont have the rear end apart so I can measure what I have but I think its the original 68 axles in it.. Just need 5 on 5 bolt pattern..
Thanks for any help.. I would also trade because I am very much on a budget.. |

The 63-69 Axles are shorter than the 70 (6 lug) to 72 (5 lug) axles. WES

I got mine off of a 73-87. Can't tell the difference.

if your rear is original, then you should look again.

ECE, (Early Classic Enterprises) sells conversion axles. That's the way to go.

Here's a shot of front/back of my truck. As mentioned, I don't think you can tell the difference.
