I'm converting my 54, 8-lug 3/4 ton to 6-lug and want to know if the front end backing plates with hubs and guts can be swapped from a 50's 1/2 ton to the 3/4 front axle. If so can I buy new ones or do I need to go looking for junk yard donors.

Thanks,
Squeegebob

Hubs will not swap,3/4 are bigger,you will need the 1/2 ton axel.
