you could also convert the front pretty easily to 5 luf and run a rear 31 spline 9"

Matt, Would it be just as easy to change a 9" to 6 lug? I think I have a 9" out of a car but it would probably be too short

Yeah, certianly, For the 9" rears, we have blank alloy shafts............at around $100 ea.

they can be splined and drilled to any pattern. runs about $125 to spline and cut to length. then yo mark and drill your pattern....you could also match lug studs to the front hubs.

all i was saying is that for a front 5 lug conversion, you could do it w/ junkyard "finds" vs. making shafts, but either way is totally do-able. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
