Front Suspension on a '69 - Your Opinion Please
So, here are my options:
1. Replace the entire front suspension of my '69 GMC with the front suspension from an '84. I have the parts, including the new ball joints. The later suspensions have better (?) control arm bushings and I have a power steering setup for the '84 setup. 2. Keep the original '69 front suspension. I put new ball joints in it a while ago and the truck is very low mileage, so wear and tear isn't an issue. I want power steering, so I'd have to scrounge some parts (unless my '84 PS unit will fit). I'm on the fence, with some preference for the switch to the '84. What do you guys think?
