6 lug on a 73-87 2wd?
how do you accomplish this? i want to swap my front 5 lug stuff for 6 lug stuff on my 2wd k5. i have an 01 erar end sitting around. im tired of missing out on some great deals because i have a 5x5 pattern. i always come across wheels off new chevy trucks for cheap. i tried searching but no luck. maybe someone can put me in the right direction.

too much back spacing on the new model wheels to be cost-effective on 73-87 year model trucks.

If your still determined to do the swap, several of the board vendors sell 6-lug rotors for disc brake conversions (the rotors are basically 5-lug rotors w/a 6-lug pattern) that fit disc brake spindles.
