are the lower arms interchangeable between a 68 and an 80? specifically the shaft diameters.
TIA

Those arms are interchangeable, the only thing that will not be is the lower balljoint if you are still using the 68 spindle. If you have a 71 or newer spindle (disc brakes) the 80 balljoint will work.

yep you should be fine. Like I said the big thing to make sure that your balljoints match the spindle you are using.
