72 c20, 74 1/2 ton front end swap question

Hi,
I did a search and found some info on using 73+ parts on the earlier trucks but I couldn't find anything about keeping the 3/4 ton spindles and rotors.

My control arms are shot on my 72 c20 and it looks as though it will be several hundred to rebuild what I have, I have a complete front end from a 74 1/2 ton that was rebuilt with new bushings, and all new joints. The 74 was my dad's, he put it together and drove it for one summer and it sat until I bought it for the cab (for a dump I have).

I would like to swap everything over to the newer front end and keep the springs, spindles and rotors from the 3/4 ton. Is this possible, or will I run into a bunch of problems?

Any and all help will be appreciated. I still may go with new parts if this doesn't work out. A long time ago I found someone who had a complete kit with Moog parts but I can't seem to find it now. Which suppliers carry Moog and have a complete Kit.

Thanks,
