Re: 6 lug to 8 lug

Find a 10 bolt in the wrecking yard and swap everything from the knuckle out. You may have to source the inner shafts from a 44 with the larger 297 u-joint so it all goes together. That is unless you can find 8 lug 44 parts (harder to locate) The 1970 is a 1 off axle with drum brakes and open knuckle. Spindle bolts are clocked different for the disc brake backing plate to fit correctly for clearance
