If your 98 is a 4 wheel drive half ton then two of the wheels will attach to the rear axle. You cannot put the '98 wheels on the front of the '57 because they will hit the steering knuckle at the tie rods.

If you have 16" wheels on the '57 then trim rings from the '98 may fit your wheels.

The third brake light bulb from the 98 may fit the 57 interior lamp.
The third bulb was burnt! Heck! My 57 had a stove bolt six from factory. Rims are 16" six bolt. The aluminum rims on the truck now look real good! I'll send a picture, I like them a lot. Thanks
