Probably a spindle swap would be the best, altough I have seen in a magazine somewhere where they installed oversized or undersized (I can't remember which) bearings. But to me the spindle swap sounds a little safer.

Or you could have them redrilled with the 6 bolt pattern, or have your rearend axles redrilled to the 5 bolt pattern.

If you have the heavy(1.250 thick ) rotors, you can bolt on the aftermarket 6 lug rotors. Check with GMC paul, as Andy has suggested. Good luck,crazyL
