the rear end is easy, its the front i hear you have trouble with, when you get new axles from mosier get them with whatever lug pattern you want, then find a machine shop to drill the brake drum.... ask impounded_dakota on here, he did the swap on the front....

my buddy has a 94 s-10 and he re-drilled the rear axle shafts for ranger rims and then for the front bought new rotors and had them re-drilled to the spects for a ranger rim so buy new rotors and take the studs out and have a machine shop re-drill them for you

i wonder if the older dakotas( 5lug, 5x4.5) if the rotors would bolt right on...
junior   +1y
