I've never done the conversion you're doing, so perhaps I don't know what I'm talking about... But here goes..

Starting point ---- 1967 C/20
Ending point ----- 1967 C/10

C/10 springs and shocks
Couldn't you change the ball joints to C/10s??
Install 71-72 C/10 spindles (disk brakes)
Install 71-72 C/10 center link, idler arm, and Pittman arm
71-72 tie rods - inner, outer, sleeve..
