DJ-5 restore plus some

OK guys my grandpa gave me his DJ-5 that hasnt run since 1988. It was highly covered by a rose bush so its not rusty except for the floorboards. As you know after 18 years all the fluids and hoses will have to be changed and everything greased up. Now the wheels on this beast are totaly rusted so it needs new wheels. what bolt pattern does this have? I'm thinkin 5 on 5.5 but dad and gramps say 5 on 4.5.

Also is there any way to convert this to power steering/brakes? I have heard that you can use alot of wagoneer parts but I wasnt sure if this was correct.

Basically I'm keeping it 2wd and it wont see trails. I'm restoring it old school with the tech of new school.

should be a cool project for a 16 yr old.

Also my bro works for o'reilly auto so I get the employee discount if that helps out the parts search.
