I did this swap from an 81 GMC 2wd. For the rear I took the backing plates off the 81 and bought drums for same year 4wd, the axle brake line didn't line up the way a wanted so I bent new ones. On the front I got 6 lug rotors from GMC Pauls, took the A arms, tie rods, center link and power steering, had to cut a notch on the bumper brace to clear the steering gear but everything else bolted up. The front brake lines are longer and I plan on using the lines from the 81 and run them on the front cross member like the 81. My 69 has holes on the frame in front of the suspension, this way I can mount the brake hoses like the 81 and not worry about binding etc.

Since the suspension was shot I went the pieces parts route instead of taking the crossmember and 73-87 suspension parts are lots cheaper than 67-72.

If you have both trucks side by side it makes it easier to price out.

Hope this helps.
