Re: What parts can be used on '68 C-20?

Thanks John!
The '68 has power brakes, power steering (and AC!) I'm not sure if the '78 has a front sway bar. The '68 does have coil springs in the rear.

If I converted to a 5 lug to have better wheel options and disc brakes(currently the C-20 has 16.5 rims and, of course, drums all the way around) would a 3.07 rear end be "worse" than keeping the original? I'm assuming I'd take both axles off the '78 so I could have disc brakes in the front and 5 lug wheels all the way around. Am I thinking correctly?
Or...is there a 6 lug disc brake option out there?

Sorry for amateur questions, I'm really new to this...ok with changing brakes, oil changes, etc. but don't know a lot about drive trains/suspensions, etc. I've never dug that deep into a vehicle.
