Switching to 5x4.5 Lug pattern on a 64 c10

Anyone make rotors for the 73-87 1.25" rotor spindle? Or adapters? I have a dropmember so I am sucked in a little anyways so adapters wont be so crazy.

What rear end should I put in? Jeep? Ford? 9" are out of my budget So i was thinking ranger or mustang. My buddy has a cherokee rear laying around that has the pattern i need, but im not sure about the strength.
Im going with a 3 link so welding was going to be required anyways.
I won a set of Shelby cs56 20x9 +35 and 20x10 +45 that I think are bad ass.

Your 9" wide front wheels are going to have a 6.37" backspace.
The 10" wide rear wheels are going to have a 7.27" backspace.

I think I would use the stock rearend and run spacers/adapters front and rear to convert from the stock 5x5" pattern to the 5x4.5" pattern.
Otherwise you are going to have to find a rearend that is approximately 2"-3" wider than your original rearend housing.
