Quick 5 lug conversion question...
Wondering if anyone can help with a control arm question...
What is the difference in the upper control arms from 67-70 and 71-72.. would it just be the size of the ball joints? I am wanting to use both upper and lowers from a 72 on my 69 cross member during the disc brake conversion. Thanks in advance. jimmy Last edited by ~Whitey~; 08-06-2012 at 01:24 PM. |

Re: Quick 5 lug conversion question...
Thank you very much. That helps a lot and what I take away from it is:
You match ball joints to the year of the spindles and it doesn't matter what year of 67-72 control arms you use. |

Re: Quick 5 lug conversion question...
Balljoint is the only difference in the 67-72 arms.
C20/C30 lower arms however are different. Larger balljoint hole. Posted via Mobile Device
