Identify a later model front suspension - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

54belair · 11-01-2012, 08:38 PM

I finally got the cab hung on the rotissary today and was able to inspect the chassis a little closer. I ended up with two questions today.

Question for this thread is: Is there an easy way (or any way) to identify a later model front suspension (I have a suspicion that when the truck was changed to 5 lug that a newer cross member and front suspension was used.)
Before I start ordering parts for the front suspension--I guess I oughta know what I have !!

Im sure there are some guys who have made this swap-----help please!
