Front Clip Swap
I'm currently swapping an '84 front crossmember, suspension, and spindles/rotors from an '84 Chevy into my '68. From what I've heard, the bolt holes should work.
I'm wondering about ball joints. Before deciding to go with this swap I installed new balljoints into the stock '68 suspension. Will they work on the new suspension? Any other advice on this swap?
