Staying with stock BBC front coils. Im using 72 c10 coil since same size. Im installing a 396
Then thinking 4 inch drop rear coils
The 12 bolt rear is already from a 72 but wanting to convert that to disc as well

Wasnt sure what to do next. I did save the center link
Someone had started a front disc standard conversion but im starting from scratch

63-70 conversion drop spindles will allow you to use all 1966 front end components including all 1966 steering parts.
You really only need your '72 centerlink if you plan to use 71-72 spindles and tie rods, which would require 71-72 balljoints.
What about power steering?

I still like ECE for suspension parts and customer service.
Belltech, Western Chassis, and McGaughy's are great also.
You have a lot on your plate.
Rebuild the entire front end with quality parts.
Do the same with your drop components and brakes.
If you can't afford it, wait until you can.
