    It seems that you've been deterred many times for trying to swap 5 and 6 lug parts.
    Why is it so difficult to understand that the suspension components are not compatible?
    It's far more worth your time to find parts that are specific to your truck than trying to figure out if something that shouldn't fit maybe kinda does.

    Too many trucks and mods to list.. check builds
    5 lug suspension is totally different. You can install it all. But you’ll need to install a 6 lug frame and all the suspension components.

    the 6 lug rears are far too long for a 5 lug as well
