Default Lug pattern !!

Hi I've got an 83 f100 with a 5 on 5 1/2 lug pattern
I have acquired a set of wheels that are 5 on 4 1/2
I swapped the rear end so the rears fit but I don't know
what to change up front to make them fit . I looked
online and seen that the rotors for a truck 4700 gvw
are 5 on 4 1/2 but , the rotor itself is slightly shorter ,
by almost an inch and about 3/4 of an inch smaller in diameter . I really don't know if they will work any help
is greatly appreciated , as I really want these wheels to work . They were free and are much nicer and lighter than
what I am currently running.
Thanks Michael

Isn't it just cheaper to buy the right wheels for your truck?

Wow. That's a lot of work for wheels. What did you swap the rear out with to get 5 on 4 1/2?
