    According to this chart, Bolt Pattern Reference Guides - Ford, Lincoln, Mercury the wheels on any 1/2T truck from '54 to '96 will be the same, and there are thousands of them out there.

    Yeah, '40-'48 Ford cars and '40-'96 Ford 1/2T pickups should fit with the 5x5.5 bolt pattern. The only difference would be in the style of hub cap you wanna run, if any. The pre-'66 rims were usually "innie" and post-'66 were "outies" referring to the little bumps the hold the cap on....also, in the late 60's-early '70s they made some small adjustments to accommodate disc brakes.

    LOL! Bob, you posted while I was writing....

    Now that you mention other variations, there was also a light-duty F150 in '80-'83 that had 5x4.5 bolt pattern, but those aren't that common in the salvage yard.
