You will need spindles and calipers to match the 1.25" rotor. Lots of money to just go 6 lug.

6 lug rotors are just 5 lug 1.25" rotors that are drilled with 6 lug at the manufactuer in China. You can't redrill 5 lug rotors.

Re: cpp 6 lug rotors on a 84 silverado

I can get Mcgaughy's 6-lug rotors .. along with a drop spindle to fit the rotor.... Skys the limit ....You can do upgraded calipers etc....or stock ..etc. Bearings and small parts like lines are part store items

Re: cpp 6 lug rotors on a 84 silverado

You will need:
HD spindles
HD calipers
And the inner bearings for the rotors are different.
(you will need a A5 inner bearing for the HD spindles)
