I saw a 1967 camper special at a car show and was told it was a factory 6 lug disk ?Is there any way to tell what spindles I have and if I can buy 71-87 hd disks or if the ones I have are machined 5 lug rotors
Thankyou for all the info it has been very helpful
Like cdowns said,... no disc brakes on trucks until the 1971 model year.
Can you post some pics of the parts you bought?
They did have power brakes in 6-lug between 67-70,... but they were all drum brakes.

You are also going to need to change your master cylinder and proportioning valve to make the disc brake swap work on your truck.
