disc swap from my 72 to 70 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**70CHEVYBB** · 10-02-2012, 09:38 AM

I am putting the disc brakes off my 72 on to my 70 so I can go with 5 lug wheels. I have already swapped axles and drums. I think I read some where that I need to change ball joints and tie rod ends? I do remember read a post that listed the parts interchange. Can someone send me the link.

Thanks, Wes

The center link is different too. If you swapped ball joints and the whole center, ends, all of it from the 72 I think you'd be ok. LoLife99 will chime in shortly .. he's the man when it comes to these swaps for sure.
