Re: Front crossmember...
Depends on your plans, i was planning on bagging mine anyways so i found a different rearend, i have a ford 9 with disc brakes from a lincoln versi. You could find a 12 bolt and buy the conversion kit to bolt up to the trailing arms. That would save from buying axles or having them drilled.

Replacement axles/drums in a 5-lug pattern. Check out ECE, GMC Pauls, or Classic Hearbeat for conversion stuff (kits). I used Moser axles for my 6-lug 68 rear end & then swapped to 71-72 5-lug drums w/o any problems.
