I've been debating swapping my 91 over to 5 lug and just started baggin' it. I know I'm gonna need the whole rear end and am looking for one before I do anything to the rear. Is there a specific year I need to be looking for?? I'm gonna start makin' some calls and need to know as much info as possible to ease the process. What's the best way to convert the front?? Any and all info is appreciated. If anyone has some or knows where to get parts, PM me. Thanks in Advance.

On mine in the front everything between the upper and lower control arms is off a 93 Toyota. We welded up the original holes for the ball joints and redrilled it for Toyota joints. For the tie rod ends we drilled out the spindle and center link (or whatever its called) and used regular bolts with heim joints. For the rear all we did was slide out the axles and had them redrilled. Mine has been done like that for a number of years with no problems.

all you need is the hub assembly from a mid 80's toyota the bearings are the same on both trucks, so just pull off the spindle nut and swap the hubs. The rear end off the same model truck is the one to use, its nice and narrow, 56" i think. The factory Isuzu rear is like 62" If you need to go narrower the early 80's are even shorter.

Cool shit, sounds easy enough. I think 6"s narrower would be plenty good! Thanks man.

What are the odds of he or someone he knows comin' to truck bash? Russell (fatboyS10) has one as well.

Do they all have the smooth all steel housing or is that year specific?I'd rather have that, that one with a cast pumpkin if i can get one.

Grant, is this the whole assembly (hubs included) or just the spindle? Not sure how those come, so that may be a dumb question. If it's everything do you wanna sell 'em? And if so how many Rocky Roads will that set me back? LOL sorry bro, Jayson told me you worked at B.R.

Thanks guys for the help!
