Re: front end swap
I have an 86 under my 68, looks like everything was fine....but I didn't do the swap, the truck was like that when I got it....and it rides like a champ.....

Re: front end swap
Unless your taking out the crossmember to paint or powder coat, I would just do this too.
Just check that the holes for the lower a-arm ubolts are large enought for the newer bolts, you may need to drill them out, I had to do that on my '65.
