If you want to go to 5 lug the cheapest way is to change in a crossmember from a 73-84 chevy truck (or a 71-72 but they are not as plentiful or cheap). You'll also need the master cylinder and proportioning valve.
Then redrill your rear axles for 5 lug, or find a rear end from a 71-72 (this rear end is slightly wider but will still work fine). I've done this 4 different times, different ways each time depending on what parts I could find . If you want to stay with 6 lug I can't help you but I know there are 6 lug disc brake kits out there, I just don't think they are cheap. Good luck, Rg

Not a 67-72 owner, but why only a 73-84? 85-87 are the same.
