'69 drum to disc front question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

will disc spindles off of a 73-87 pick up fit on a 69?

Yes.
But you will have to change balljoints and outer tie rods.
Search around in the "suspension section".
This subject is talked about almost daily.

Besides outer tie rods you will need custom adjusting sleeves because 69 inner and outer tie rods are thiner than 73-87 CPP has those CA sleeves

I pulled mine off of a 72 and they work fine with the tie rods and balljoints on my 69

That's weird,... because 71-72 ball joints and tie-rod ends are different than the 67-70 parts.
