Either swap in a C10 front end and swap the rear end. I picked up the drop spindles from ECE to get 2.5", and converting to 5x5 lugs. I also have a GM 10 bolt rear end in 5x5 out of a 97 1500 that I will swap with some fabrication. Just note that if you go discs, you can use most years of the 6 lugs- but they only made 5 lugs from 71 and up. Not to mention you will also have to install a master cylinder, brake booster with a proportioning valve. Someone on here makes a nice bracket for that.

Do you have coils up front or torsion bars?
