'88 Suburban front end for disc brake conversion in '70 1/2 ton?
Hey,
Just wondering if I can use the front end out of a 1988 burb to bolt up to my '70 pickup so I have frot discs? Is the swap the same as using 73-87 front end parts for the conversion? Posted via Mobile Device Last edited by JON70CST; 03-06-2012 at 04:18 PM. |

It should work fine. The Suburban carried the same design to 1991.

He threw in the steering box, linkages with tie-rods and everything from the 88 burb as well. Will this all bolt up as well, and eliminate the need for me to run a conversion sleeve for the tie-rods etc.? Sorry I'm new to this conversion. My truck already has power steering if that makes a difference?
