Rear axle (not rear end) swap - 6 lug to 5 lug

I am contemplating switching axles in the rear end of my '63 so I can go to 5 lug rims instead of 6 lug.
At least a dozen years ago I swapped out my original '63 rear end (broken pinion gear) for a complete bolt in rear end from a '67 - '72 that had 6 lug axles. Now I want to put 5 lug axles in that housing.

I found this older thread http://www.67-72chevytrucks.com/vboa...ar+axle+change but it doesn't completely answer my question.

Are there any stock axles that will swap out directly to give me the 5 lug I want?
