Need to make front 8 lug???
I have a 79 c10 2wd 1/2 ton that i just swapped a 14 bolt FF into. I now have 8 lugs in the back and 5 lugs in the front. The guy i got my rear from gave me spindles, LCAs, rotors, hubs from the lug truck. Will this stuff bolt up or will i need to get different bearings or ball joints to make this work.

Tonight mine pulled a few cars out of snowbanks, and is sitting in my driveway, icicles on the grille, wheels just white cakes of snow, buried up to the lug nuts in powder, straps and chains wrapped around the bumpers, the outline of the wipers clear in 4 inches of snow on the windshield... A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.
