72 spindles on a 67?

OK..I am front suspension ignorant. I ordered 72 drop spindles. Is this a bolt on to my 67? Or am I going to have jump through hoops on this too. I drilled 5x5 rotors to a 5x4.75 pattern. That worked pretty slick.(had a machine shop do it). My friend trying to help out cut 2 1/2 coils out of my 2" drop springs...lol...that didn't work out to well. It sure is low now.....

Re: 72 spindles on a 67?

You will have to change your upper ball joints to the 71 - 72 style, outer tie rods ends, and you will have to have and adapter to attach to your inner tierods. You say you have disc brakes now are they on your truck now or what are they for? If you can get the 73- 87 spindles it will be cheaper in the long run and parts are more readily available.
