Hello Everyone, I have a 68 C20 8 Lug I am finally getting around to restoring. I would really like to convert the truck to disc brakes all around. I have read the thread and was curious if anyone has insight on which would be the better route. Finding a complete cross member at a salvage and bolting it up or replacing the necessary pieces ball joint, spindle, etc.? I spoke to a resource at a salvage yard and he did a look up on a spindle and that reaches into 91 year. Can I use 91 parts to convert as well? Sorry to ask questions that probably been answered but I want to make sure I do this right.
