Does anyone know how wide wheels you can use rear on a fleetside? no problem with 295 on 10"?

And what offsett if i will have 10"?

Hey Jocko. Trucks looks perfect, nice work. I vote for the 59 Impala caps. They look great on your truck.

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
 

Im new to all of this....what does it take to change a 6 lug to a 5 lug....I really want some torque thrust on my truck but I don't like the 6 lug torque thrust...how much money are we talking here to modify? Please advise...

Re: 60-66 Tire/Wheel Pics
 

Disc brakes up front get you better, more consistent, braking ability & 5-lugs. The rear can go several ways: used 5-lug rear end swap, re-drill the original 6-lug axles to 5-lug, or new 5-lug 'replacement' axle swap.

The front swaps depend on if you do 'one stop internet shopping' or if you're more of a used parts harvester. I've done disc swaps using 73-87 donor parts for about $300; internet kits can run up to about $700 depending on options. The rear stuff is subjective. Some properly equipped automotive based machine shops can weld-up & re-drill 6-lug axles to the pattern you want for around/up to $200; but they'll still be 45+yr old parts. The rear end swap is only as good as the rear getting swapped. If the current rear end is good, replacement 5-lug axle 'kits' go for around $300-400 bux but you get new, stronger axles w/zero wear.
