Crossmember swap questions...

[motorcritter]

I'm looking for information/guidance/warnings/referral to mental health professionals regarding a crossmember swap- '80 C20 to my '70 C10. The proposed donor truck is ultra-clean, and the parts are A-1. But the big question is- should I do it, and live with the 8 lug hubs, or can the spindles get swapped out for a 5 or 6 lug set-up? Or should I just hunt down a suitable C10, with 5 or 6 lug hubs? The rear axle is going to be changed to be compatible with the hub style, no matter what- if I go 8 lug or not. The donor truck is intact and has everything I would need.

So, any thoughts on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
