Camaro rear end on my 71. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I bought a Camaro rear end a few months ago i think its out of a 97-98. There both 5 lug but they are different lug pattern. I am about to buy some wheels and i need to figure out a way to convert either front or back to the same lug patter.

Any ideas?

What wheels are you buying? Most billet wheels can be had with dual patterns. You can redrill the rear axles, or have new ones made.

Im going with Boss 335. I can afford billet now

Is there anyway to just get new rotors in the front with the same lug pattern?

I have the exact rear end. I am also going to be running the boss wheels staggered. So it wont matter if the lugs are the same, only if your doing
8.5's all the way around.

Well my truck is 5 on 5 in the front and in the back it is 5 on 4 3/4. The Boss wheels dont come in 5 on 4 3/4. So I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet.

They have them for 20's not 22's. And im looking to get 22's

The 304's come 5.5 front 20x8.5 and the rear 5-4.75 22x9.5 - chrome
