Your answer depends on how much work you want to do. There are much simpler, easier, & cheaper options if you merely want to have ps and disc brakes on your C10... ...like (1) bolting on a complete front end with its cross member, from '71 thru '87 C10's; or (2) bolting on correct spindles, drag links, ps box & pitman arm, idler arm, and tie rod ends from these same years: while doing this mod, you can simultaneously buy drop spindles should u wish to lower the front. Using these 2 methods, u might(?) be able to use your rotors/bearings, but that would be about all. Searching our forum, u should find every thing you need to accomplish what u want by utilizing used parts. HTH, Sam |

Re: 69 C10 front end and disc brakes
Thanks Sam...I guess...wasn't the answer I wanted though...lol....I already have 79 spindles on it...just was hoping parts car would work out..Would the steering colum out of Cat work? And I seen somewhere else where I can use existing pitman arm from c10 and use newer tie rods and then use some special adapter adjusting sleeve. Anyway thanks for the info..Rick

I bo't a tilt-and-telesc. out of a 'vette when gathering parts for my build on a '66; but I let a guy talk me into selling it to him! Already having the '79 spindles, you're close to go, if u want disc brakes! Sam |
