You're right it does, however, I haven't been able to find much information on making changes to the 3/4 driveline and suspension. Mainly the front end. I really would like to get away from the 8 lug because there isn't a lot of options for wheel combinations. So if you have some suggestions on what i could do to get a 5 lug on it with more modern brakes (not a new disc conversion). I have a 9inch and a 700R4 already and still debating on the engine at the moment.
