I am interested in this too. I have a Camaro rear end in my 54 1/2 ton. The front brakes are Camaro disks and I have the Camaro master cylinder. The booster and rear springs are from an 86 Blazer. The new open driveshaft is a two piece unit, so I had to install a steady bearing. Back to the wheels: I have the 14" Camaro wheels on temporarily - the wheels work but IMHO the truck looks silly. They are 8" wide with (I estimate) about 2" offset. What I want is 16" wheels with the 5 x 4.75 bolt pattern. These can be easily found - the tricky part is Fran wants to use the stock hubcaps. The stock hubcaps do not fit on newer wheels as they are held on by clips rivited to the wheel. A company in CA can make new custom steel wheels for me at about $180 per wheel. Ouch! At that price I might as well get mags, but she who must be obeyed really wants the stock hubcaps and wide whitewalls (more ouches). Is this what you are trying to do too? Anybody got an idea of where I can get some rims? This Friday I am going to the wrecking yard with one of my hubcaps and a tape measure, but I don't hold out a lot of hope...
