Looking for info 6 lug to 5 lug rear axle `57 panel
Looking for info to swap rear axles and drums on a 1957 panel 3100. We want to go from 6 lug to 5 lug. Was hoping it was something somewhere someone offers... Hoping no to have custom axles made. Thanks in advance!

If you’re junk yard crawling, a Chevy Astro or Caprice may be a good place to look.
The Astro has a slightly offset pumpkin. Not really a big deal, just set it up with less pinion angle. The mid 90’s Caprice had disc brakes. |
