C20 Disc Brake Spindles, what years work?

Ok, so I'm on the hunt for some disc brake spindles for our 67 C20. What years will fit? I'm ok with changing ball joints and tie-rod ends, as they need to be replaced. Local yard has 74 spindles, will they work, or will only 71-72's work?

The 74 spindles will work just fine.

Get the steering linkage from tie rod to tie rod including the center link while you're there. With your new (74 year application) balljoints plus those parts you will be set.

reman'd calipers are dirt cheap... cheap enough to not even bother running the old ones. If the rotors are real thick anf not pitted with rust, I'd run them over the new replacement ones.

Thanks Guys!

TX: What's better about the steering shafts? Or is it to just get the proper tie-rod ends? I'm assuming 74 balljoints will fit in the 67 control arms?
