A arms, Can’t make up my mind.

So I can’t decide how I should rebuild the front suspension on my 1964 c10.

I bought a Porterbuilt stage 2 deluxe kit for the rear and the stage 1 kit for the front. When I tore the front apart I found that most if all the joints and or bussing were needing replaced.

I could just buy one of the eBay rebuild kits for around $250 or I could order a set up tubular a arms from Porterbuilt.

The only problem with the Porterbuilt option is just that so many options.
I can get them moved forward
I can get them shortened
I can get the moved forward and shortened.

I would love to lay frame don’t get me wrong but I don’t want to lose and bed space so I am happy with what I will get out of my stage 2 deluxe rear kit. But after talking with Porterbuilt is sound like I will not be able to use the moved forward and shortened arms if I ever swap the front k-member out for a drop member.
But I don’t know if I would ever need a drop member.
I feel like I should just put the time into sand blasting the OE front a arms and rebuild them but I want the front stance to match the rear stance as well. Not to mention I don’t have the $$$ to buy the Porterbuilt A arms anyway.


Sorry for the rant.
