Hello, how's it goin'? I figured I'd drop in and get some info on custom chassis work for the front of my '99 R/T.

Main thing I want to do is go to 5 lug.

I was curious about two things. If you use the correct angled reamer on '96 back spindles, can the gen 3 balljoints bolt to the gen 2 spindles? Longshot question, I'm sure.

Will the factory rack, even with different tie rod ends, work with the spindles?

Assuming this miracle would work out, I wonder which way the track width up front would go. Narrower, wider...

Any brake upgrades available with the gen 2 setup?

Only reason I would consider this is parts house convenience instead of hub bearings and sending them to Moser for redrilling. I'll probably have this truck for a long long time and like being able to go down the street to get replacement parts.

I'm a auto machinist/eng builder/ head porter, so if anyone has engine build questions, feel free.

Thanks for any guidance.
