Bulldog, I did a disc brake swap on a 68 about a year ago.The parts truck was a 79. I left the stock A-arms and put 79 ball joints on them.(the studs are longer on the newer ball joints because the spindles are thicker)
Then I used the spindles,tie rod ends,and center link from the 79. I didn't have to change the pitman arm or the idler arm. Hope this helps. ------------------ 70 Chevy C/20 72 GMC 1500-SWB 72 GMC K/2500
