I will explain the best I can with what knowledge I have. I have an 80 front end in my 67. It is converted to power steering and 5 lug disc. I am rebuilding the front end and installing drop spindles and springs. When I started this I had no idea the front end had been updated and I had already purchased everything for the 67 front end. I worked with the place I bought the parts from very reputable parts company that alot of us use that only really does 67 - 72 chevy and some 73 - 87. When we discovered the newer front end called them and they exchanged some of the parts and said all you will need to complete the job is a 67 drag link. Fast forward the truck has been sitting for two years and I am finally getting back at it. I called back to go through it with them again to make sure I have all i need. They explained it and actually a drag link from a 67 - 70 1/2 will work.

Hope that makes better sense.
