Re: Converting to front discs? What all is needed?

Thanks Vet but scanned over all 4 pages and that didn't help. I guess I should be more specific.

What is needed from a '72 GM 1/2 ton truck....to upgrade a '67-'70 GM 1/2 ton truck from front drum brakes to front discs? I have everything available (from spindle to dust cap) except the lower control arms but thought that they (67-70 and 71-72) were the same? And...if the crossmember is the same... then the upper control arms and the spindles to dust caps w/calipers should be everything? Other then front brakes hoses?
