Help!!! ASAP Please

I have recently been laid off and need to get my truck back on the road. I just swaped out the old front suspension for a 79 front suspension. What I need to kow is, are there any spindles that will go on the new suspension that is 6 lug like what I had on it originally? that way I wont have to worry about new wheels and tires. Thanks a bunch guys.

They have them here for $75 each. http://www.truckandcarshop.com/trucks60_72/t60_115.html You will have to call to make sure they fit on late model spindles but I don't see why they won't

I posted a link to a threAD a few weeks back that a guy used 87+ 3/4 ton 6 lug rotors, check on the threads that I started, it should be close to the top.

Yes. Many vendors sell them. Look at ECE. (Early Classic Enterprises)
They sell them for their 63-70 conversion kits,... but they will work on your spindles as long as the original rotors are the 1-1/4" thick version. Not the light duty 1" version.

Here is an alternative way of getting 6 lug disc brakes.

It would require some extra work, but if you're laid off you probably have some extra time. I guess it depends if you can acquire the needed parts on your budget. You might get lucky and find the parts in a wrecking yard.
