Front wheels, Dually

I ran into a bit of a dilemma, the 74 F-350 has bias ply's and split rims so I was going to steal the wheels and tires off the 90 E-350 but it turns out the 74 doesn't have a center ring for the wheel to sit on, it relys on the tapered lug nuts ot hold it in alignment but the 90 rims are made for the flat nuts with washers. So there is nothing to align the flat wheel on the hub.

As I see it I have 2 choices, I'm hoping the hubs off the 90 will match up with the 74, if not I'm going to have to turn an adapter on the lathe. Anyone run across this trying to upgrade?

Why mess around with all that??? Take them to a salvage yard and trade them for the correct wheels??? Or do you still need them for future use on the '90???

I took a trip a boneyard already and all the non split rims I found used the flat washers instead of the tapered lugs.
