I could do that, I was just really hoping to not have to start unhooking brake lines now too. Hopefully that doesn't sound too lazy... haha. But if thats what it comes down to, thats what i'll do. From Jeff I got the entire front suspension of the truck, just cut through the frame and I got the whole thing (control arms, sway bar, steering box, spindles, brakes, even the wheels/tires still on) so everything is there.
I saw that the ones in the link were for C10, but do you guys know if they are different than the C30? I was going to call Western Chassis on Monday and ask them if they knew. I'm starting to wonder if the previous owner who restored my truck may have not used all C30 parts in the restoration. But again, I'm also new to these trucks so this is a learning experience here for me.
