Have have read that to change the front end on my 51 to 5 lug I'd want something off a early 50's Chevy car. Is this true for the 3/4 ton as well?

Thank you.

The 3/4-ton spindles are different than the 1/2-ton and the swap you've read about won't work.

What 5-lug pattern are you trying to switch to, and why? Understanding what you want to accomplish might help me or others suggest ways to get there.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...
