I shipped mine to Moser Engineering and had them fill and redrill mine. It costs $75 for the pair plus shipping but somebody on here said they quit doing that????? Any good machine shop should be able to do it. The local ones around here wanted $100 each though and they dont supply the studs like ME did.

Thats odd for them to say... they have only been doing that service for like 15 -20 years or however long they have been around.

well one way to get 5lug and better brakes would be to get wheel asemblies from a 4x2 k-5 blazer or k/c10 pick up. Any of the halfton 2wd chevy stuff will be 5lug.

there used to be a super clean LUV cruising around town with a smog legal 305 motor. It was like streetrod sano quality all the way down to the new dash cap and weather strip. Anyway I think they guy said it had mid 70's monte Carlo disk on the front. all I know is that it looked like more than enough brake to stop this truck even if the rear was still drum.
