Hi from Oklahoma!
My name is Ryan and I have 67 C10 pickup with a 72 cab for the A/C. I just recently pulled the old drum brakes off of the front and used parts from a 72 C10. It took some research but ended up fairly easy. Just used upper & lower control arms(didn't have to but they had new paint and bushings) and spindles. The trick with doing it this way is just buy 72 inner and outer tie rods with new sleeves, pull the drag link because the taper was different in 67. Took the drag link to a machine shop (my brothers) and use a taper drill bit on a end mill, drill it out till the inner tie rod shows the cotter pin hole and call it good. Also my project for this weekend is to put my new 6 lug rotors on, just got them from Early Classic. I've read the forums on the website for a while now, got some really info from the people on this site.
