I've done some searching on here but haven't found anything on the way i want to do this. I have my lowered 2wd 68 GMC and I've gotten bored with it so i decided i'm going to attempt to put the running gear out of my parts truck that i got for my 77. I've done a little bit of measuring already but i just wandered if it is as simple as it actually seems to put the front axle, springs, hangers, and shackles from the parts truck which is a 78 into my 2wd 68 GMC. I'm capable of doing some fabricating but it doesnt seem like it will take much.

Here is the GMC

And this is the parts truck(before i stripped it apart to rebuild my 77)

will the front spring hangers/core support mounts from the 4wd work in place of the ones on the 2wd?
