All you need to get 5 lug in the front is to get the lower control arm, spindles, rotors, calipers, etc from a '73-'87 C10 pickup, Suburban, or 2wd Blazer. You don't
have to buy expensive aftermarket parts to do it. The parts you need should be able to be found in a local wrecking yard, or in newspaper classifieds, Craigslist, etc.
For the rear you just need either a complete rear end from a '64-'70 C10 and get the conversion axles, or a '71-'72 which already has the 5 lug axles.
