68 C10 Ole Blue

Recently lowered 4/3 Went pretty smooth, Next project is Front Disc Convert. It's 6 lug may stay with that or go to 5. and Column shift. Does anyone have any info on the easiest way with very little modifications for those 2 items?

Thanks for the help, JB

You have some sharp wheels there. If you keep 6 lugs you can use them. If you want to change wheels, you have more choice with 5 lugs.
I don't know what the question is on the column shift.

Re: 68 C10 Ole Blue

Thanks, Im havin fun workin on it. Basically what I was asking about is when converting to disc brakes and putting in a column shift, What would be the easiest way to do it. What years of c10 trucks would be the best to get parts off of if I go that route. And without major modifications.

Thanks JB

Nice looking truck JB. The stance looks great. I think a column from any 67-72 would work and 1971 was the first year for disc brakes.
