If you go the 73+ route you don't have to pull the entire crossmember. A lot of guys do because it's all there and you also gain the newer style mounts. I used my factory crossmember and control arms, too, and swapped everything else over from the donor vehicle. Here is an excellent thread that member lolife99 was kind enough to put together that will tell you all you could ever hope to know regarding disc brake swaps.
