The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot Big Bolts How many years? 6 lug patterns

Does anyone know how many years the 20" 6 lug pattern wheel was used on Chevy 1-2 ton trucks? I know they were used in the 40s; did they continue use up through the 50s? Was there more than one 20" 6-lug pattern?
Thank you. Image, 1942 Chevy 1.5 ton 4x4

a couple of the GMC 2 tons my cousin has have the 6 bolt pattern they are both early 50's. my 38 and 54 Chevy. 1.5's both have the 10 bolt pattern. Wonder if the GMC wheels would be the same as what you are looking for? if so that would give you more options.

Dale, You won't find any Chevrolet 1 1/2, or 2 ton trucks,with 6 lugs, unless they are Army trucks. Standard civilian Chevy trucks from this era, were 5 lug front, 10 lug rear. Civilian 1 1/2, & 2 ton GMC trucks from this era were the same. 400 series, & up GMC's, were spec.'d with 6 stud, or 10 stud wheels. Dayton spoke wheels were also available, on the Heavy GMC trucks.

Dale, the truck in your picture has Mil spec axils, you wont find that on any civilian type truck. You can however find wheels pretty close to that on Chevy and GMC on proliner chassis in 2001 yr. I know this because we have two at the lumber yard. They are 19.5 wheels. I also have some f650's with a similar wheel on 22.5's in the yard.

Thanks for this information!
