Randy,

No expert on adding factory front sway bar/axle from K10 truck, subs from the 70s and 80s. Several builds here show the front cross member from 4x4 truck that came with sway bar, being a pretty much, bolt in for 67 to 72 trucks. ( from what I have read here)

Are '73 to 87 4x4s pretty common in yards near you, they are here, $ 125 gets the whole axle assembly/suspension/steering set-up. Wish we were closer, have a whole 83' set-up, used to plan 64', it has 3.42 gears. Would think adding the newer cross member would be easy way to go, along with assuring correct geometry.
