Mix & Match Front End
OK.. so I have a 68 C-20. I am going to be removing the spindles and everything attached to them and replacing them with the spindles from an 83 3/4 ton.
At some point in this process I will be replacing all the bushings and the ball joints. Herein lies my problem -- If I stroll into an Advanced Auto and tell the dude behind the counter that I need ball joints for a 68 C-20 with a 350 and 83 spindles he's either going to argue with me, sell me some pine freshner or have an aneurism. Obviously; in order to protect his health and my sanity I will have to fudge some data. Soooo..... What ball joints do I need for this setup? My best guess is to get the 83 parts and tweak the a-arms as needed but I would apreciate input from someone who has been there.
