The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk rally america wheel question?

I think you are headed in the right direction, but would suggest one caution.

The stock type wheels are designed for drum brakes and won't clear disk calipers. While you are planning custom wheels to look stock, you will need to modify the stock width and/or offset to make sure your fronts (and backs?) clear the calipers.

Some years ago I put the open rear from a Chevelle under mine and put a 5-lug disk kit on the front. I run Cragar mags so I didn't have the same challenge as you do, but I'm real happy with the way mine drives today.

My response to those who complain that I've modified an old stock truck is that I've kept another one on the road thus preserving it for the future. It may not be stock but most people can't tell or don't know and they appreciate other old trucks after being introduced to mine.
