6 lug rotors to 5 Lug rotors?????????????

I just had drop spindles with 6 lug rotors put on my truck. Western spindles. Can I get 5 lug rotors to go on the western spindles? The reason. Someone called me after the drop spindles where installed. He may buy my truck, but he wants 5 lug. Help.

I don't have any experience with Western Spindles, but as far as I know all the aftermarket spindles are designed to use '73-'87 rotors. So, yes you should be able to simply change the 6 lug rotors for a set of '73-'87 5 lug C10 rotors.

Make sure your 5-lug rotors are the 1.25" wide version and you will be fine.
