6 bolt rotors on 2wd spindles? can it be done?

hello

planning my build on a 81-87 chevy 2wd with 5 bolt wheels.. looking to swap to the 6 bolt front and rear for two reasons.. one i can use a 14 bolt 9.5" 6 bolt rear axle, and i can put newer style 6 bolt gm wheels on the truck. has anyone ever put 6 lug rotors on the front... excuse me if this is a common thing, but i would appreciate a point in the right direction... will a 67-72 2wd 6 bolt front rotor fit maybe?

Let me know what you think

Aftermarket disc brake swap rotors come in both a 5 or 6-lug pattern. You just need the 6-lug rotors.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
