This one will be interesting. I will post photos, I am hoping this group will be able to help me identify them. I bought 6 lug discs from a guy on Craigslist in bay area, he wrecked his 65 and pulled the front clip, sold me cross with a-arms and discs. He was not origional owner, only kit was installed before he got truck. He could not tell me where the kit was bought, I have no idea who built it, or where I will get pads when these go bad!

I do know that both ball joints were NOT origional, they were replaced, and that spindle was not exactly same length, and lug bolts were metric in hubs. Think caliper bolts were metric also, I will check. MAYBE TOYOTA? WHAT ELSE HAD 6 LUG,5.5? He was certain this was a conversion kit for his truck, from one of the classic parts places.
