Front Suspension Swap

Not to beat a dead horse. I have a complete 1990 Suburban for parts. What will i have to do put the front suspension, disc brakes and power steering on my 1970 c-10. I've seen the comments on earlier model swaps just needing a couple of bolt holes redrilled. All of the suspension on the sub. was rebuilt within 5k miles of the engine going bad. Also the rear axle is fresh as well. Everything is basically new or rebuilt rear end gone thru and added 3.42 gears. The parts look the same as my 85 suburban. Any and all help, comments and ideas will be put to good use

Re: Front Suspension Swap

Drop the crossmember as a unot and bolt it in. You will have to play with the brake lines, and might have to add/align some holes. It is the same as your 85 as Burbs/Blazers didn't change till 91.

The rear end is another story. I'll have to let the 67-72 guys tell you whats needed there.
