I'm going to do it on a C20 eventually, so I've payed attention post when I've seen them and there have been many, do a search in the archives and you should find them.

You didn't say whether you are going to stay with 6 or go 5 lug. From what I've read you can swap in a complete frontend from up to an 86 1/2 ton, change ball joints and use later spindles, since you are going to lower it anyway buy a kit. My 2 cents.

I'm planning on keeping the 6 lug, and I started looking at a kit from what used to be Chevy Duty.

Those front end parts are not too difficult to change out... just make sure you have the right tools and be careful with the springs.


Another quality post.

Check places that sell Moog, they have listings for most parts back to '47 on trucks. For '63-'66 all the parts are available from them.
