Re: 1975 SquareBody with front drum brakes?

SCOTI, cwcarpenter98,

From what I understand, you're suggesting that I keep the existing upper and lower control arms, but replace the ball joints and control arm bushings. After that, I can install the drop spindles and lowering springs. Then I’ll just need to gather all the components for the disc brake conversion—rotors, bearings, seals, backing plate, calipers, and brake lines.

I'll have the truck home on the 24th and will be able to get some pictures after that to verify what's actually going on out front. I did look under the truck and it did have a front sway bar.
