73 c10 susp q"s

I may be picking up a 1973 chevy c10 2wd here in a couple of days if i here the right answers here. other than the truck i was curious what more i would need to convert my 70 c20 into a c10. I figure i can use the control arms, spindles and outer tie rods from this. also use the brake booster and master cylinder. i think one of our venders has the conversion part for the inner tie rods. am i missing anything? or what more should i snage before offing this thing. which by the way has a running 454/th400 and im getting it for 500.00. hope thats a good deal. thanks for everything.

No need for the 'conversion' tie-rod set-up if you're getting the whole 73 front suspension. Use the 73 arms, brakes, spindles, tie-rods, & drag-link.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
