Hello - new to the forum. In searching this and other forums I see many options available for both aftermarket and DIY disc conversions for 5 and 8 lug axles. I have found a few aftermarket kits for the 12 bolt, 6 lug axles. Some of the 6 lug kits require either turning down the axle flange to 3.06" or upgrading the axles - which I was hoping to avoid.

Has anyone done a junkyard swap for this axle? If so, what did you use?

Thanks.

92 Blazer front rotors with the centers machined out, 10 bolt front caliper carrier with the center machined out with new holes drilled and a wedge block welded on. Uses front calipers but will need massaged and will need 1/4" longer wheel studs.
