I pulled the front suspension from an '89 Burb for my swap. A lot of guys swap the entire crossmember from a 73-87 truck under their 67-70. You can also bolt the upper/lower control from a 73-87 truck to your existing crossmember, then just use the donor trucks's spindles and front end parts. I would recommend replacing the ball joints, tie rods, etc. before swapping them over.The FAQ has a lot of great information on brake swaps and booster installs. Here is a link to the page:
