The rotors are cheap and the calipers are about the same price.

At least I don't feel like I'm being abused for owning a 67 truck, by buying the later model common parts.

I'm collecting the parts to convert mine right now (that's why I have the rotor part numbers in front of me)

My research found that for this conversion your need 3/4 ton lower A-ARMS to be able to press in 88-98 1/2 ton ball joints (the 3/4 ton lowers use the same diameter press in size as the 1/2)

So your say a 3/4 ton 88-98 ball joint will press into our old a-arms ?

And is needed for the 1/2 ton lift/lower spindle ??
