Still running torsion bar front? It is just a matter of removing spindles install year correct balljoints for new spindles and the rest is standard brake job. The master cylinder has to be swapped out for dual chamber and if hydraulic clutch new mini cylinder. Pickle fork and sledge hammer. I believe CPP has tech article for this.
