Re: Need direction new to this.
i recommend cpp for the suspension. i used their drop spindles in the front. you can also take the disc brakes from a 70s to early 80s just make sure its calipers and rotors are compatible with the spindles shaft. as for the 5 lug rear v conversion i believe you could also take the rear axle shafts from a later model c10 if the axles are similar. i could be wrong, my truck already had the conversion. if youve got the cash you can just get everything new from cpp or early classics. very nice truck by the way

Re: Need direction new to this.
also when you do discs up front you need a proportion valve for disc/drum setup
