the six new lugs come on the new rotor. the reference vehicle is a 96 2500 chevy 7200 GVW(not the 8000 lb) with 6 lugs, i got them from autozone. youll need a 6 lug axle from a 2wd donor vehicle for the rear.
95 Yukon 2wd 6 lug conversion?

Impressive...Wish I could go lower in the front but I have turning issues!
so what is needed to do the rear conversion from 5 lug to 6 lug on a 2wd?
edit post: sorry if I had read more carfully 95 yukon answered. so a rear axle from a 6 lug is needed, is there any fitment issues from a 4x4 to 2wd?

yes, most new 6 lug axles are wider than 5 lug, especially the 4x4 compared to 2wd.
i wanna say the 02 ext cab sport axle im using is about 4" wider than my stock axle.
no doubt Riviera, there has to be a easy way. worste case i guess you gould get a 1 ton front clip grafted in? the rear would be easy axle swap, maybe move tabs/narrow but easy none the less.

Get custom axes made for the rear. It's not much more then regular axles and it's alot easier to swap then doing a whole rear end. I bet if you searched a bit you will find a set of 6 lug axles that are really close to the right size. I'm thinking an older Suburban or Blazer would be really close.
