front suspension...

im new here to the forum, and i know that this has been talked about a million times but i havnt found anything specifc to my question..

i recently bought a 65 swb fleetside!!!! (wanted this body style scince the early age of 14)

ok heres the deal....... i plan on eventually putting a fair amount of hp in this truck and drum brakes+ speed = getting to know the sand pit at the end of the drag strip...

i have a 85 chevy truck in the yard wasting away... ive read about using the disc brake set up off these trucks as a bolt on swap...

now my question is... can i just un bolt the crossmembers of each truck with all suspension in place and swap them?? i dont mind drilling a couple holes if thats all it takes... id rather do that then pull springs and what not... and id also llike the 85 to be able to roll around the yard instead of sitting on jackstands with no wheals...

thanks!!!
