BTW, are u talking the whole suspension and all...or are u just wanting 6 lug wheels?

Yes, it can be done, but why not just get a 6 lug in the first place? Why go through all the headache, back breaking work and not to mention time and $$$ spent? The money you save on the conversion alone can pay for other mods on your rig.

just six lug wheels.. ,its easier to find six lug wheels than five lug wheels.

haha.. true true also, but i bought the truck last christmas with no intention of doing anything to it, im fixing to leave ofr air force anyhow so its no big deal. maybe after i get time

u should be able to get a set of adapters for the 5 lug to the 6 lug...i've seen them out for other vehicles, so i dont think that it'd be too hard to find some for this truck

Don't think that I would want to space them out to accomplish 5 to 6 conversion.
Would at least need to change rotors in front and axels in back and I bet that it goes way deeper than that. Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too costly.
