Matching steering suspension parts

[neal64ss]

I bought a 68 C10 SWB, power steering and 6 lug drums. Then I bought a 71 C10 SWB frame with front disc and 5 lug rear end. I would like to change to 73-87 drop spindles.

I understand I would have to use 73-87 ball joints, which will fit in my 68 or 71 control arms I currently have.

I understand that I will have to use 73-87 outer tie rod ends.

Since the only center link I have is on the 68 truck, I understand I will have to use 65-70 inner tie rod ends.

Can I connect these tie rods?

Is there a simple solution for this particular arrangement?

Pitman arm and idler arm were same from 67-82 as best I can tell.
