I talked to him about this a while ago, back when we did that DML
group buy on some fiberglass hoods.
He did indeed change everything out. I don't recall the specifics
now, but he said the fronts were really easy; you can go out to Pep
Boys and get the parts you need to convert to 5 lug; he said the
rears were a lot more difficult.*
* - (I could be wrong; he MAY have said the rears were easy and the
fronts were difficult.) Gee, this is a helpful message... :-)
I think he has an 8 3/4 rearend, so he might have just changed the
whole she-bang in the rear...
