5 lug conversion question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I found a 1/2 ton 2whl 77 chevy for parts. My ques is will the rear axles swap out and will the front disc convert over? Heard the front disc from 77, that is the lower control arm and just put new ball joints in. Is that correct? Of course this will be swapped to my 70 2whl 1/2t. And also how about the power steering gearbox and pitman arm switching over?

ok I'm just going to swap out rolling front end instead. Any mods that might have to be done? What do you think of the rear axles swapping out?
