67 donor?
First off i am new to the site and i have been looking around at some of the threads last couple of days and i sure wish i would have found this site years ago.
I have a 67 swb and i was wondering what you guys would suggest for a donor vehicle to help with the parts i need. I want to put tilt steering in it, power brakes,power steering, change from 6 to 5 lug. I was wondering if i could swap the whole front sub fame or if i have to change just the spindles? Thanks |

Re: 67 donor?
The tilt column restricts you to 71/72 to get it all from one vehicle.Van columns work up until column ignitions came along awhile later and are cheaper than 69-72 truck columns.If you want a vehicle for all that except the column you can go right up through the 88-98s.I`m not sure if you can just swap the knuckles with tie-rod ends on the 88-98s,but the 73-87s you can.
