Default Dana 30 with six stud wheels

Expert opinions sought on how to fit six stud wheels on a Dana 30 front.

Would rather not go into why, as its complicated.

Just want to match the rear which is out of a full size Cherokee.

What I was thinking is to use hubs and rotors out of a Musso to give me the six stud wheel pattern. I believe a Musso has a Dana 30 front.

Anyone got any thoughts on what problems would stop this working.

Any other easy ways of getting the six stud wheel pattern for a 30?

Might be quicker to grab a D44 from an FSJ and flick the D30. Six stud pattern is same as early Tojo as well.

By flicking the D30 I also flick an air locker, 4.27s and Warn high strength axles.

Would rather not!
