Drop spindles
 
Sorry drop spindles are for a 73-87 pu. What do i need to put these on a 69 pu? Change ball joints only or what?

Ball joints, and tie rod ends. Also make sure that they are for the heavy half ton trucks. The light duty ones are different. WES

If it is like my 67 with bell tech 3". Parts listed above plus wheels, tubular lower control arms or trim the hell out of the oe ones, new center link, hard brake lines, prop valve, master cylinder. (you could also use wheel spacers instead of lower arms)

you could also go and buy a 73-87 front end they bolt up to the frame your working with

ok I am not sure everyone is answering your question correctly,
a 69 C10 Pickup has drum brakes and you will then need to switch those over to Disc brakes to get your drop spindles to fit if you already have them for a 73-87 pu and get disc brakes to fit the same year truck the drop spindles came off, or order some new disc brake conversion kit with drop spindles already in the kit to match them perfectly or you may have problems.
also you will then need the parts that Classic Heartbeat has mentioned above.
