I ran into a problem with my 62' c10 coil spring/disc brake swap. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 62' c10 that came with torsion bars and drums on the front. I was told that the front suspension and cross member from a 1972 c10 would bolt right up, but I guess I was told wrong. The holes where the 72' crossmember bolts to the frame are different and I would have to do some modification to make it work, but I dont want to do that at all
My question is will the 72' upper and lower control arms fit onto the 62' front crossmember? If so then this will make my life so much easier.

Please input your $0.02
