What year front suspension do I have
Keith,
Here are the pics I took of the front suspension in the 68 GMC short step side that we talked about in my PM. Pic 1 is overall view of the pass. side front end. Pic 2 is brake hose at front of crossmember Pic 3 is close up of lower ball joint and spindle. Pic 4 is close up of upper ball joint and spindle Pic 5 is close up of upper A-arm cross shaft. Pic 6 is close up of lower A-arm cross shaft. Pic 7 is close up of upper a arm cross shaft near shock area. Pic 8 is current tire and wheels on the truck (might help about the year) Jim

Re: What year front suspension do I have
It could be the 1" Light Duty rotor version or the 1-1/4" HD rotor version.

It has the 1-1/4" rotors. I really appreciate you helping me out with this. You can delete this thread if you want, or leave it, if it might help someone else. Thanks Jim
