HJ buckets won't fit the WB bolt holes either. Keep an eye on using earlier series stuff in WB as they have a lot of metric bolts such as seat belts and seat mounts.
Already aware of this, it's not too much trouble to just make more mounts up and get them engineered accordingly, I'll look out for the metric bolt thing too

I know it's a bad resolution photo and this was in 94, but V5 Simmons on a 83 WB ute. So I guess bigger size rims will look similar. Personally I don't think 20" wheels really suit older style cars. But the beauty of cars is to build them how you want to.
That looks rad, I pretty much want something like those but with a black lip, although Simmons are crazy expensive these days. Going to use 17" max, I'm not a fan of huge wheels on any car, smaller wheels are easier to spin

The sedan diff is a coil set up. You would need to mount leaf spring mounts to the diff. Can be done but easier just to use a ute/van diff.
Discs open you up to other issues with the hand brake as well. Plus you need to change the master cylinder to suit. It's all been done and is quite do-able.
Already have the mounts to do convert it from coil to leaf 
so it's nothing we aren't aware of. Already have a master cylinder to suit too, as for the handbrake issues I suppose we'll work it out when it comes to it hahaha
