    I know some many have asked these questions and i am trying to figure out converting to front disk brakes on my 1970 Maverick

    But the issue I'm trying to figure out previous owner has the car with 5-stud rims on it.

    Is that standard or something that was after the fact and what do I need to figure out if anything before going foward with a drum to disc conversation kit

    All 1970 Mavericks came with 4 lug wheels. A 5 lug conversion has been done in the past or there are wheel adapters installed

    Should not change your upgrade procedure to Maverick/Comet or Granada disc brake assemblies.
