Hey, FirstGen....

Can you provide any more detail about what exactly parts were necessary for your truck and what you got them off of? I've heard stories of people raiding 1994-1996 Impala/Caprice/Roadsters to get the 5-lug setup.

I am wondering if there is a need to get new a-arms (upper or lower), ball joints, tie rods or intermediate shaft with the method you chose?

I literally have the same truck as you (closer to stock though

) - I would probably do mine a bit different, just looking for some direction.

TIA
