71 will be disc spindles.69 were drum.I think the ball joints are different.There should be a FAQ on what works with what.I know you can do it,I just don't remember offhand what all has to be matched.

upper and lower ball joints are different as well as the steering components. You pretty much need everything from the '71 to make it work
