I have a 68 swb fleetside that I am going to do a 4/6 drop on. The biggest thing is I am going to be using a 5 lug rearend from a 72 that I bought as a donor. Will this effect the backspacing I need to get in any way?

I think the normal offset is 4.5 in front and 5.25 in the back but I just wanted to make sure the back would be ok since I was using a 72 rearend,
