C30 spindle questions

Im wondering if newer spindles will fit my 67? If so I could get newer 73-87 drop spindles and rob the disks off my 75 C30 junker. Just cheap mods if it will work

Re: C30 spindle questions

Yes, you can put the spindles up to 1987 on your truck, but you have to change to the '71 - up balljoints and tierods also. Its not a bad swap. Some people drop the whole cross member and swap it with a newer one. They claim its less work than the breaking A arms, etc., but I disagree because you have to take the engine loose, tie it up, and then manuever the heavy cross members in and out.
