Re: 5 lug axles in 6 lug diff....

if you look youll notice the disk front end tires stick out more than the rear. so converting the 67-69 axle to 5 lug isint an option for everyone. 71-72 rear end is the way to go. no a 1970 rear end might be what youre looking for. most 1970 rear ends are as long as a 71-72 but will still be 6 lug so you can just swap out your axles no problem. be sure and measure though before you buy. some 1970 rear ends are stil 56" backing plate to plate like the 67-69 rear ends
