Default 6 lug to 5 lug conversion

Thought I would start a new thread on this subject. Baer brakes offers an upgrade 14'' rotor and caliper bracket for our trucks, you keep your stock caliper. Since they manufacture their own hats they can drill them for 5 lug instead of 6. 1320 wheels and probably any decent machinist can redrill hubs to 5 lug pattern. So your wheel choice is greatly improved along with braking ability but keep in mind that you will need an 18'' or bigger wheel to clear those big rotors. For rears you can redrill axles or replace, not sure about bigger rotors for that but you can call Baer.
