This has probably been covered before...I have a friend that has bought a 70 something Chevy Van, will the front suspension swap to my 69 GMC to convert to disc brakes? Also, will the rear end work? My 69 is a coil spring rear and the van is a leaf spring rear. Can the axles be swapped to convert the rear to five lug?
