What's do I lose???

[slimneverdies]

Hey fellas, I have a 77 C20 crew cab that I'm going to make into a crew cab short bed. My biggest concern is that I also want to change the 8 bolt to the more common 5 bolt. Does this cause any issues with towing a 22' car trailer with about 2800lbs inside??? There has to be a good reason that bigger trucks all have more lugs but to what extent would be considered safe? So this means sourcing out a 12 bolt or 10 bolt from a C10 and using the front spindles also. I understand that making it a short bed will hurt the stability a little but this thing is to damn long so the short bed is already bought and in the plans.

This is what I'll be pulling possibly once a week



Thanks
Slim
