I'm not positive about what year starts and stops it but I did put the FRONT 5 lug drums off a 55-57 chevy car on my 1950 chev pickup. Just pull you old ones off and slide the others on...bearings and all. I couldn't do anything with the rear but I did find a set of 6 lug chrome wheels that set it off with the wide tires! I'm sure some one else will be along shortly that can answer your question completely and with out any doubt. Its only been 35 years since I did that particular one! smile

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile

yes Mitch, works fine - you can use the drums and hubs from the early car on the TaskForce truck spindles to get the 5 bolt - the early 5 bolt car rims also have the clips for the correct hub caps [6 clips for the earlier car, rather than the 3 on the TF truck 6 pin wheels] - bearings and brakes are the same too eek grin
