So what is the goal for this truck? Do you want 5 lug all the way around? Would you like to go to the original 6 lug? What is it in the back? I have fixed a bunch of trucks over the years that were suffering POM. Previous owner mayhem. The best fix for this is to decide what the end goal is and then a path forward to get there. A 70 was a drum brake truck so the Spindles are 71, 72 or 73 and up. The 73 and up come 2 ways with either 1" or 1 1/4" rotors. On the tie rod sleeves I think CPP made them. There is a mix of inner and outer tie rod ends you had to use to get the correct left and right hand treads.
