What year drop sindle should I run? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 67 C10 2wd that Im converting to 4 wheel disc brakes.

Finally decided I should sit at the big boy table and order some drop spindles haha.

My 67 front end is completely apart. I have donor front parts from a '79 with 1.25 thk rotors. I have new ball joints, tie rod ends, ready to go for this.

My question......What year spindles should I get? I know I need ball joints/tie rod ends to match the year of the spindles, but I think I read that the 73 & up drop spindles are wider than the 67-70. If I need different year ball joints, etc. so be it.

Am I better of getting the 67-70 drop spindles for my truck?
