Welcome to the Stovebolt wave

Finding 22.5" (one piece tubeless) 6-lug Budd rims is way easier than finding the 5/10 lug rims. Place an Ad in the Parts Wanted Section here and check with your local big truck junk yards...those rims were used for many years...don't overlook old school buses.

The rebuild kits can be found at your local NAPA, you need to confirm the size (cast on the side of the MC)...1-1/4"? If the MC is pitted real bad than it can be sleeved in brass or SS. Do a google search and see who does it in your area. I know White Post Restorations in Virginia does it.

Does your truck still have the original 265 V8 with a 4+2 trans/rear setup?
