Yes, the arms, crossmember and all from any 63-87 square body GM truck and some duallys and suburbans thru 91 all have the same basic suspension.

so get the spindles, arms and all from any GM fullsize from 71-87 and have disc brakes. plus drop spindles and drop springs are available, plus bag setups, plates and all that.

The rear is a different story. So just cut it all off and start with new mounts in the rear.

you will more in the drop member setup than buying a front clip, replacing the bushings and balljoints and matching up steering between the two generations...

dropmember runs $1450, plus you will need bags, steering rack, and steering column rods to hook up your steering column to the rack.
