    You may be able to have the front rotors drilled for the 5x5 pattern. It might be easier to get a new set of axles for the rear with the stock bolt pattern. Strange or Moser will make them as needed. You can get them from Jegs, Summit, 4wheelparts.... even directly from Strange or Moser. You just need to pull out what you have and measure them and tell them the application they are for.

    Funny I was thinking about just the opposite! Why would you want the 5x5 setup? Seems like there is alot more wheels available for your setup! You should be able to get some axles for a 4x4 that will match your 6x5.5 pattern.

    the reason why i want to go wih the 5x5 pattern is because im going to be putting down alot of power and i need a drag radial tire & rim. the just have more of a sellection with the 5x5 pattern. i need to get some drag lite and they do not make them in a 6 lug pattern. i am going to get strange to send me the 5x5 pattern for the rear but you think my best bet woulf be to get my fron rotors re drilled for the 5x5 pattern?

    there are not many 5 on 5 wheels out there in stock size 15" replacements anymore. They are almost custom builds. I ran into that with Weld. They custom built me a pair for my buddy's truck. I had purchased a set and sold them to him. He wanted another pair and they had to do a custom run for two more wheels. They don't like truck wheels for some reason. It's the same wheel as the Impala/Caprice, older body style from like 90-95 but heavier duty.
