Crossmember ???
I have a 67 2wd C10 and it already had 5 lug disc brakes when I got it but I didn't notice until last night that they had swapped the control arms , steering linkage and possibly the crossmember too . The question is what is the difference between the stock 67 crossmember and the 73-87 ? Was the stock unit bolted in or riveted in ? Mine is bolted right now . Is there a visual difference ?

Some guys might swap the entire thing as a unit if the parts were fresh. Others might swap just the parts & re-use their existing x-member if rebuilding it all anyway. About the only visual clue would be the motor mount towers are different for the 73-87's & the lower a-arm u-bolt diameter increased to 9/16".
