the 73 are dumb drum break, id like to go disc, staying 6 lug to run the new stock sliverado wheels i have. any ideas???

i want to convert my luv to disc break on the frnt, but i want to stay 6lug if possible, im dropping a built 305 motor in the truck.

i know i can use the luv spindles. but i cant find the backing plates and wheel hub. or can i use the hub from the drum breaks???
