P30 front suspension swap to c30?

I have an 87 p30 based motorhome with 30k miles on it that I may be parting out. I was wondering if the front suspension can be used on my 82 c30? the reason I ask is the 82 needs a front end rebuild as well as the fact that the motorhome has brand new 19.5 tires but it has the funky 5 lug setup in the front but regular 8 lug in back. I was thinking of changing to the P30 spindles and brakes etc if possible so I can use the wheels and tires on my c30 as well as knock out part of the front end rebuild with the motorhome parts. any info would be appreciated.

Re: P30 front suspension swap to c30?

As long as the P30 is the IFS set up the parts should be the same. the only diffrence between the two the p30 could be 5 (10 lug) and the C30 is a 8 lug and the thing that sets that is the brake rotor.
