i have just swapped my drum brakesover to disc brakes by using the front pieces off a 1988 chev pickup. all i had to do was replace my bottom a-arm from a 1/2 ton to a 3/4 ton a-arm. the top balljoint was the same one but the bottom one had to be changed to a 88 ball joint. it pops right into the 3/4 ton a-arm. it only cost me 140.00 to do it as well. then your steering linkage just has to be adjusted to fit. i hope this helps somebody.

My questions
#1 not knowing much about 4 x 4's are these parts taken off a 2wd? 4wd? or both
#2 as discussed all steering attaches to the 88 parts does this also include power steering
#3 my truck is a 67 im pretty sure the 68 is the same?
