Disc Brake question

Hello..nice forum!

I am hopefully picking up a 63 this weekend and the front disc conversion has already been done, but....they kept it a 6 lug truck...I want to go to 5 lug. Is the front as easy as buying new 5 lug rotors? I keep hearing talk of different thickness of rotors from 5 to 6 lug...

Second question...On the rear, my plan was to pull the axels and take them to a machine shop and have them fill and redrill as a 5x5. Is that ok? Then while its apart, should i go ahead and put discs on the rear too? cheapest way?

Thanks and ill be a heavy question poster for a while if i get this on saturday..

Chad
