Front wheel conversion

[cousin willie]

K dont if this is possible but my 52 1/2 ton has a different rearend in it and has a 5 lug bolt pattern,now the front has the original 6 lug straight axle.My question is,if I can change the backing plate,drums,brakes to a 5 lug pattern without taking anything else off.I know about the spindle length and all,it has to match up with that but can it be done and what year,type of other vehicle should I look for.I'm going to Charlotte this fall to look for an IFS but for now if I can do what I want or can with just changing the above will this work.may sound a little nuts but I think with the measure twice think once why couldnt it work.......thanks ya'll
