c20 8 lug to 6 lug any ideas? got transport steelies
I was able to pick up 2 sets of transports wheels I want to run a set on my 80 crew cab c20. For the rear I have access to a 88-92 4wd rear for free. I also can get a 6 lug rear from a 76 ish 4x4 for cheap so I'm ok there. I know I'll need to Redo my perches ect.. for the front I could go with the light duty 88-98 2500 spindles brakes ect..or order up the c10 drop spindles with 6 lug rotors but I'd need to change the lower control arms too right? Anyone know the size difference on the spindle itself. I'd hate to get rid of my drop spindles to have to buy another set if I can run the newer light duty 2500 brake on these or maybe c10 rotors may fit? This is the truck there going on. It's a beater but I love it.

Call www.earlyclassic.com
They make a drop or stock height spindle, that is a direct bolt on to your 3/4 ton a-arms,... That converts to 1/2 ton rotors. Then use their 6-lug rotors. No need to change a-arms or tie rods. Easy. I would never use 88-98 parts on a 67-87 truck.

I wouldn't wanna go 10 bolt on a crew but it's your choice... I'd look for a 14 bolt semifloat 6 lug axle. I believe it should bolt right up if the truck is a C20.

10 bolt and light duty rotors under mine, does fine.
I'm not planning on towing anything.
