There are kits available that support six lug wheels. I don't know if the
stock wheels will clear the caliper. I converted mine to five lug wheels
when I converted.

I bought a disc brake setup from Carter's, I talked to Kelly and he gave me
the group discount. Was real happy with the kit and the instructions were
