To the best of my knowledge a wide five assembly identifies the truck as a 3/4 ton. Not a lot of them were built, so I guess we must hope that your hub and drum interchange with the 1/2 ton. As seen here, even the more common 1/2 ton part is hard to find in useable shape. First off, does your truck have a 122" wheelbase? The 122" wb was shared by the 3/4 ton and the tonner, but the tonner has 17" multi-piece wheels and a 5 on 6 7/8" lug pattern, the rear is a 'full floating axle'. I will have to bust out my copy of James Wagner's 'Ford Trucks Since 1905'. There is a lot of good text and factory photos there. Can you get a side view showing the rear axle and hub? Edit: Holy Cow! I see now in your first photo that you do indeed have a full floater on the rear! Very scarce item. Might be a good time to switch out to a later 8 lug full floater or maybe better yet, a 9" rear. I bet you could find 5 on 5 1/2" front hub/drum assemblies that would slip right onto your front spindles.
